These 1,000 square-foot-teaching spaces can hold between 12 and 75 students. Faculty across all disciplines can bring their classes when they want to teach in a hands-on way or if they require large areas and infrastructure to teach creative practices.
Flexible spaces will allow us to expand interdisciplinary collaboration, blurring the lines between the disciplines.
Colorado College’s emphasis on creativity and innovation is intentionally broad and inclusive of all students and faculty, and seeks to expand the limits of knowledge and convention personally, socially, and culturally.
During the past four years, Creativity & Innovation at Colorado College has engaged with 67 faculty and more than 2,600 students over the course of 81 blocks.
With Creativity & Innovation continuing to scale, a new building specifically designed for our unique vision is being planned to meet currently unmet needs on the Colorado College campus. The new space will be flexible and designed to engage students and faculty across the disciplines in entirely new and more interconnected ways.
Construction of the new building will depend on the generosity of donors.
