Child and Family Services Building

CSBS Completes Building Feasibility Study

Thanks to a $50,000 gift from the Ezekiel and Katherine Dumke Foundation, the college has completed a building feasibility study. The 35,000 square foot building will house the Early Childhood Education Program that is a part of the Family and Consumer Studies Department. The building will feature classrooms, research and laboratory spaces designed to promote interdisciplinary collaboration in the area of child and family research. Additionally, the Barbara and Norman Tanner Center for Nonviolent Human Rights Advocacy will move into the building.

The feasibility study projects the building cost at $10 million. The college is not seeking state dollars for the project other than annual operation and maintenance support. Dean Rudd has begun fundraising in earnest for what will be the first college building in over 50 years.
