Nice 4th-floor patio – for student events (capacity up to 250 or so)
Nice building plan (consistency between floors)
Great Loading Dock
The escalator was a nice feature – very easy to navigate from floor to floor
A great amount of natural light
The atrium was an outstanding feature
Access hallways for AV, set-up, and Catering
Meeting rooms equipped with AV
Great access to the garage for parking
Nice signage
Overall spacing is awesome – very open concept.
Great that the Bookstore had a good amount of leisure books – as well as textbooks.
Student Organization space is minimal
Great concept for the book buyback center
Very welcoming
Nice “hang out” place
Nice programming venues – particularly for student organizations
No AV equipment charges to student organizations – just personnel expenses
Gorgeous TV lounge (multi-TV approach - 12)
Bathrooms (family-friendly)
The Paper towel dispenser was not located well
Restrooms (consistent location, look, and no doors)
Nice meeting room diversity (size, location, AV items included, and multi-purpose rooms)
Nice dining areas
One-stop-shop center for student services
Nice walking tunnel to other building
Completely high tech
All meeting rooms had technology built-in
Very large TV lounge – would be nice to have an enclosed option
Used development opportunities as a source of funds
Nice recycling program
Spirit Wall – but would locate it in a more open area – like Info area or food court
Signage was good – with “shoot-outs”
Comparisons with UH and concepts for UH
Welcome Center is nice – possible relation between UH UC and new Welcome Center – and great connection to the Garage (with spirit wall)
Love of IUPUI community and history (pride)
Based on IUPUI started with (new building) they basically had no limitations
Opening the UC Building – removing all the black tile around the perimeter – and include glass to increase the open feeling
Improved food service options (healthy, quality)
Very nice e-mail stations
Information Center right at the entrance (that has a building function as well)
Very open, visible, and centralized (Open Concept)
Lots of surrounding land
A very “open” feeling
Great natural light – definitely a highlight
Nice placement of shops on a “retail level”
UH has to be more organized when it comes to the planning of a renovation/expansion of the UC/UC Satellite – it appears that students had little input (Chartwells was actually boycotted for a short time due to limited input from students)
Building style at UH should express diverse community at UH
Fabulous atrium and use of light
Very open – visible and has curb appeal
Bell Tower rocks – even without a bell
Use more glass in design (possibly using shading – to keep cool)
Good flow in food service areas – and can close off sections
Nice digital displays instead of menu boards are great in food service areas
