CAMPUS

• Choice + Voice: Building siting can create more intimate outdoor spaces that supplement formal campus greens and provide options for students.

• Connection: Visual connections between residence life buildings and key features of the campus core establish identity and cohesion and connect students to the campus.

• Comfort: Inviting landscapes and environments encourage relaxation and recreation.

• Security + Well-Being: Thoughtfully sited, well-lit campuses with varying levels of transparency and activity, promote a sense of safety and connection with peers.

• Signage + Direction: Clear, consistent campus branding and legible signage on buildings, walkways, and streets creates a sense of belonging and comfort.

To be nurtured and comfortable, food access is vital. Dining halls that are located to be easily accessed, address the campus, and are available for use outside of traditional Western dining hours create campus hubs and centers of belonging.

Creating equitable experiences begins at the planning level with a holistic view into the campus and student experience. Planning helps to define drivers and ensure new and renovated facilities embody the student life mission.
