Why You Shouldn't Wait to Address Your Campus's Wasted Space


On-demand Webinar

Form Title Goes Here

Universities have long-relied on new construction as a silver bullet for attracting students, faculty, and donors, but campuses are now reckoning with the costly reality of aging and underutilized spaces—compounded by stakeholders who are reluctant to reduce their share of the campus footprint.

Because two-thirds of facilities-related expenses are incurred after initial construction, maintenance of underused spaces is not only costly, but increasingly unsustainable in a tight-budget environment. Leadership teams must commit to making existing environments more functional and reducing wasted space—while building necessary buy-in across campus.
