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 />

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 />
