First Impression Centers: Passport to Learning
Presenter(s): Charles E. Dagit, Dagit Saylor Architects; Kathleen H. Seelye, Thomas Ricca Associates
Convener: Pamela A. Eaton, Cini-Little International, Inc

The first stop for high school students visiting campuses is often the campus center building--memory makers. Presenters will illustrate the common elements of successful community buildings; illustrate how elements of entryways, stairs, and circulation paths contribute to the overall spirit and image of the building; and provide new ideas for spaces, such as marketplace dining. Presenters will discuss how one introduces qualitative thinking about such buildings, the importance of the pathway system, and the need to create character out of these spaces.
