Fleming building

Building for the future of education

We all know those places that feel like home. This summer our school moved into a newly renovated building on campus, and it just feels like home with its plentiful spaces for community building, colorful and technologically equipped classrooms, and locally created art honoring campus leaders who continue to fight for racial justice. We cannot wait to share this new campus home with you.

However, this was just phase one of the two-phase building project. We are grateful for university backing and for the generous donors who have helped us get this far, but we need continued support to create our innovative teaching labs and finish spaces that will bring all of our programs and research centers under one roof once complete.

With much of this year focused on social distancing from those closest to us and social unrest across the communities we love, we have been reminded how important it is to be together—physically and socially. We are reminded that one of the things that makes a place a home is its people. Having a physical space to be together and metaphorically holding space for one another is such an important part of who we are as a school of education and a community. We hope you will join us to make this new campus home all it can be so we can continue to work toward transformative change together. We need each other more than ever.
