Making an
Entrance

Not just replacing, but reinventing.

With this new building, we're meeting the needs not just of the University, but also our community. The new Cofrin Technology and Education Center innovates new ways of learning, conducting research, working and collaborating. More than a building, this structure creates a new heart for the campus, commanding the space between the Weidner for Performing Arts and Rose Hall that forms the lawn, boulevard and circle of Main Entrance Drive.
