The team that brought this extensive project to fruition\u2014Jon Rader, overall construction management; Toni Bacon, who coordinated the interior design; and Christine Maute, who directed the selection and installation of new, high-tech, audio-visual systems\u2014have been tirelessly working for more than a year towards the building\u2019s successful reopening this September.<\/p>\n
Working together with Geisel\u2019s medical education department, and the four graduate education \u00a0programs to assess new teaching paradigms, changing technological needs, and expanding space requirements, Dave Harris, the director of facilities, says the renovated Kellogg Hall features three, flat-floor \u201csmart\u201d classrooms with flexible teaching spaces, and seating capacities of 100, 50, and 25 persons, respectively. Each classroom can be rearranged into \u201cpods\u201d or lecture-style configurations by simply moving the furniture. This allows for multiple teaching styles.\u00a0 In addition, Graduate program administrative offices, study rooms, and lounge space are also housed in the building.<\/p>\n
The recently renovated Chilcott Auditorium in Vail, along with Auditoriums G and H at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, have remained as auditoria and will continue to accommodate faculty who prefer teaching in that setting.<\/p>\n
Harris says their goal was to create a contemporary space that would stand the test of time.<\/p>\n
They certainly succeeded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
