Fort Awesome

 Fort Awesome is a 96,000 square feet, four story, brick building with an entry courtyard as well as a lower level retail. The construction of the dormitory will bring our total campus housing population to approximately 2600 beds, in an effort to meet current and projected campus goals.

The constuction of Fort Awesome is the first step towards the development of a campus “Commons.” The Commons is intended as the setting for new retail and public programs, attracting students, faculty and the surrounding community.
