How to order The Chronicle's special report on Campus Architecture

This special report examines the problems and possibilities that college planners and architects confront in adding, replacing, and renovating campus buildings. The report features illustrated listings of scores of new college buildings and renovation projections completed in the past year. Among the articles in this issue:

  • Kenyon College's new athletics center looks like it's from outer space, but it is welcoming a growing number of students and faculty members to sports activities.

  • The University of Oregon and Princeton University are designing new dormitories aimed at improving student life. And architects have seen the dorm room of the future, and it's modular, modular, modular.

  • An arts center at the College of Saint Benedict gets an addition sympathetic to the original building -- and at a bargain price.

  • Make it big, make it work, and make it attractive, a U. of Pennsylvania dean told architects planning a new laboratory building. They followed his instructions, with impressive results.

  • A group of architects and campus-sustainability directors talk with The Chronicle about the role of colleges in energy use and environmental health.

  • Since 1950, argues Allan Greenberg, most colleges seem to have given up on the challenge of designing campuses that are intellectually and architecturally coherent.
