We're moving out of Peterson Tunnel! Due to the renovations to Peterson Hall the CWC is relocating to the newly redone Gage Annex. We have a committee working very hard to ensure that the new writing center is everything we want and need it to be. This week we have an update from them, and next week we'll hopefully have a picture.
Gage Annex Transition Committee Report!
Things are moving along very quickly--all of the construction (and tearing down of walls in Gage Annex) should be done within the next couple of months. So our team has been busy trying to figure out how to make best use of the open space we'll be left with.
We want to add a counter to one of the walls in the main room so people can plug in their lap tops, conference, or chill with their favorite drinks like they're in a fancy coffee shop.
We also decided to add a memo board--and maybe a small shelf--to get some items off the front desk.
We want to buy a nice sectional couch so many people can chill on it, or break it apart to sit in groups.
Also, we're considering getting booths for conferences and conversations, and making room dividers to create nooks and crannies for studying and chatting.
I also want to add the exciting new features that are being created:
Nice new green carpet, which will appear everywhere except for in the kitchen. The kitchen will have tile floors!
More on the kitchen: A full oven, sink, and plenty of counter space, plus the dining room table we've all grown to love!
A projector and two full white boards for use during staff meetings and other gatherings.
...It's all very exciting! Until next week,
The Gage Annex Transitions Committee
