The desirability of a university is often judged by its sense of place...

It is not enough to build a university around the specialized needs of its academic programs; it also needs a collection of distinct gathering places that catalyze interaction and bring the campus to life. However, most universities spend their money on academic facilities that never consider how to relate to or animate the spaces around them.
