Hole in the wall. Or perhaps the better term is the more elegant “breezeway.” Third floor has an architecturally novel open see-through section – a patio-like classroom extension. This view is from Highway14.
Dedication set for $17 million campus showcase
WINONA, Minn. – Contractors are putting finishing touches on the new Aquinas science building at Saint Mary’s University. A dedication ceremony has been scheduled for October 15. The $71 million structure, on the Highway 14 side of the Terrace Heights campus, encompasses the former Adducci Science Center’s Hoffman and Brother Charles Halls and what was formerly known as the Science and Learning Center. Architecturally it was designed to look and feel like one continuous building. The building has classrooms, learning spaces, and labs for business and the sciences, including math, psychology, nursing, and computer science. There also is a nursing suite, simulation and control rooms, a debrief room, makerspace, trading lab, data analytics lab, computational lab, environmental biology lab, human behavioral lab, sales training suite, teaching and research greenhouse.
Campus-side perspective. The omni-science structure is a major build-on to earlier science buildings that have been seamlessly integrated.
