Home Economics Hall does not adequately support current methods of<br />
instruction, whether in general classrooms or class labs. The building is<br />
largely occupied by class labs for Fisheries and Wildlife, which will be<br />
relocated to the new Center for Agriculture and Natural Resources by<br />
2014. As part of the Upper Quad, Home Economics Hall is one of the<br />
oldest buildings on campus and in need of a significant renovation.<br />
This initiative involves repurposing the building to accommodate the upper<br />
level courses and specialty spaces for the School of Business’s Business<br />
& Accounting program and School of Agriculture & Natural Resource’s<br />
Agricultural Business program. This also includes supporting space for<br />
faculty offices and collaboration. These programs will continue to rely<br />
upon general instruction space for lower-level instruction in both Frisbie<br />
and Old Gym Halls. As part of this effort, Home Economics Hall is to<br />
undergo a full interior demolition and fit-out, with an addition on the<br />
back (east) side of the building. Features of this initiative include:<br />
•<br />
•<br />
•<br />
•<br />

•<br />
•<br />
•<br />
•<br />
•<br />
•<br />
Demolition of the lean-to like structures, associated cellars and<br />
access-ways on the back (east) side of the building<br />
Demolition of all interior stairs, and interior partitions<br />
All new mechanical<br />
Waterproofing of the foundation and lower level of the building<br />
New interior open stair that visually connects all three floors<br />
New secondary egress stair and elevator for ADA compliance<br />
Restoration of the north, west and south exterior façades, including<br />
historically appropriate glazing and roof cornice details<br />
Reconstruction of entry from Upper Quad with columns (similar<br />
to Alumni Hall) and vestibule<br />
Replacement of existing roof with a new slate roof<br />
3-story addition on back (east) side of building which houses a<br />
45-seat tiered case-study seminar classroom on each level, this<br />
includes the partial demolition of the building’s east façade<br />
Elevator overrun is to be housed within the attic space<br />
The addition to this building on the steep slope to the back of Home<br />
Economics Hall involves added complexity and cost. This is driven by<br />
necessary foundation and shoring work, as well as the demolition of<br />
the lean-tos, reinforcement of the existing foundations, and difficult<br />
construction logistics in accessing the site. Additionally the College has<br />
