One university with a human scale.
The university sets the standard. Faculties sustain the subjects. Research groups pursue questions. Colleges give students a community. Centers are where these meet.
Architectural concept from the design, not a selected site or a certified building plan.
Active students in the mature design. Every point here is one of them.
Centers. A place and its facilities: library, laboratories, quiet rooms, common areas and local support.
Colleges to a center, forty in all. A center of 1,000 active students.
Students in a college, across four years, with a named mentor.
And then you are in a tutorial. Growth adds faculty, communities and dependable centers. It does not turn a tutorial into a lecture.
Two fixed center days anchor the week.
Laboratories and studios support tutorials; quiet rooms support reading and writing; common areas make informal collaboration ordinary.
The center should remain useful on the other days too: its library, laboratories and services are what make the two fixed days worth traveling for. A full center has 144 teaching and scholarship faculty and eight research professors.
