Social Sciences is Building for the Future

An exciting transformation is underway for the School of Social Sciences! In August 2007, the Hathaway Dinwiddie construction company broke ground for the new Social and Behavioral Sciences building. With plans to be fully operational in fall 2009, the new 78,000 square foot building will house segments of both the School of Social Sciences and the School of Social Ecology.
