Classroom Utilization Study
Architect: Einhorn Yaffee and Prescott & Scott Blackwell Page Anticipated Completed: Fall 2007 Brief Description This six-month classroom utilization planning study aims to develop long-term strategies for the effective utilization of 179 general-purpose classrooms at the University's Washington Square campus, the individual schools' proprietary teaching spaces, and potential classrooms in other spaces. The overall goal of the study is to develop a long-range classroom planning strategy, which addresses current and future pedagogical needs, promotes classroom utilization, including flexible uses, and takes into consideration the efficiency of locations for Washington Square classrooms.
