Naming Opportunities

The TV studio, located on the ground floor of the new student center, will be named in his honor. This space will allow students to produce an array of content that can be streamed live throughout the community in addition to being made available on the school’s YouTube channel for later viewing. The TV Studio will have glass walls, inviting those passing by to watch fellow community members “in the process”, inspiring and welcoming them to get involved – whether it is to jumpstart a career in communications or simply to explore a new interest.

Integrating several student resources in a beautiful space, the new Student Center will promote engagement through a central, attractive, comfortable space rivaling any school. It will combine the practical and the aspirational. Students will have a natural destination with one-stop convenience for many daily tasks such as academic and support offices, performance space, areas for both work and play, along with a café and bookstore. All the while, the Student Center will introduce fresh dynamics, encouraging new intersections of ideas and people and exposing our entire community to exciting, often unexpected opportunities.

Located on the ground floor of the new student center, the demonstration and teaching kitchen will promote education, engagement, and community building. In this attractive space, faculty, students, parents, and alumni will come together for food-centered special events and hands-on programming that support goals such as healthy eating, learning about cooking and baking, team building, and expanding cultural understanding.

The baseball and softball teams will use this space to practice fundamental infield skills such as pitching, throwing and catching, as well as defensive plays. This additional space will supplement Baker Field and the softball field, allowing players of all positions to practice simultaneously.

Located in the outdoor living and recreation space, this truncated outdoor basketball court will include two hoops and regulation three-point lines allowing for pickup games, shooting hoops with friends, and two-on-two tournaments. The addition of spaces like this in the heart of campus will enhance the student experience, supporting moments of joy and physical activity to create balance within the rigor of the academic day.
