Wow. Is that replacing the old "Death and Dying" lecture hall behind the Greek Theater? And when are they starting/completing work on it?


it's scheduled to be completed a few years ago.



Seriously, it opened in 2014. It's easy to miss because it looks like landscaping. It contains two auditoriums seating 475 and 290. Phenomenal use of the existing landscape.

20 years from now it'll look extremely dated. Absolutely awful architectural design that isn't very forward thinking.

Big fan of natural materials. Wood and stone.

I like modern architecture to an extent, but I also like consistent themes. A lot of college campuses, especially certain campuses in the great state of Texas, are like walking tours of architectural fads from the last 40 years. Contemporary doesn't always hold up well.
