Most of the college’s academic and administrative buildings are clustered together in a complex in the northern corner of the campus. The buildings are arranged on a rigid grid, with two levels of concrete pathways providing circulation. The square in the center of the complex has been reserved for the quad. Facing the quad are the student center, theater, library, and gymnasium. On one corner is the triangular “Laney Tower”, the main administration building; on the opposite is another triangular building housing a lecture hall and dance studio. Academic buildings form the outer ring of the complex. Each has a similar design, with courtyards in the centers of each square on the second level, ringed by classrooms and offices; and more classrooms and vocational facilities on the first level, accessed from the perimeter of the building. Most of the outer buildings occupy two or three squares on the grid. The entire complex shares a red brick and concrete theme, with sharp corners, square and triangular shapes, and little vegetation.
