Wandering campus footloose: How—and why—to foster connections to our buildings

Abstract

Campus buildings have been part of our community conversations of late, usually as leaders determine whether those particular founders or donors should be honored. But, as writer Goldie Blumenstyk recently shared, sometimes a building's name offers a sense of inclusion. Other authors, including Biemiller, Buckman, and DeSantis, have also discussed of late how physical infrastructure can help maximize campus planning, pride, publicity, and even investment.
