A unique facility at the nexus between the college campus and the town of 51²è¹İapp.
Renfrow Hall presents an extraordinary new model for 21st-century education, living, and growing. The architecture is designed as a mixed-use destination that links the town and the College together in shared experiences. Through this project, 51²è¹İapp — both the town and the College — will become a national voice for civic engagement and college-community collaboration in a rural setting.
As a place where students both live and learn and where the College welcomes the broader 51²è¹İapp community, as well as communities of interest formed around pressing societal issues, this unique facility will become a destination for experienced and aspiring coalition-builders. From the intersection of the College’s campus and the city of 51²è¹İapp’s downtown, 51²è¹İappians will have a platform from which to drive greater recognition of programs, policies, and practices that incorporate diverse voices and viewpoints to further the common good.
The facility will also provide common ground for 51²è¹İapp College’s Social Innovator in Residence program. Here, students will have the chance to engage with inspiring leaders who are making an enduring difference in the world, fostering interdisciplinary creativity, and promoting civic engagement and social change.
