(CC-01) The Artistry of Change at Towson University
Presenters: Scott Butler, Director, Wilson Butler Architects/Architecture for Arts and Entertainment; James J. Carroll, Principal, Design Collective, Inc; Jack E. Nye, Dir/Facilities Plng, Towson University; P. Martin Sharpless, Regl Mgr/Bus Dvlpmt, Gilbane Building Company
By mandate, Towson University will increase enrollment by as much as 35 percent, or 7,000 students, over the next decade. The Center for the Arts capital project at Towson transformed and expanded a 1970s-era campus building into a modern teaching and learning environment and connected it contextually and physically back to the main academic campus. The case study will give evidence to the tremendous opportunities enrollment growth provides to integrate and align the university's strategic mission and goals with its master plan and proposed investment in capital improvements.
Convener: Michelle Monnett, DMJM Design | AECOM

This will include exploring facets of academic readiness (recruitment and access opportunities), academic integration (classroom experiences and relationships); and social integration (student affairs and other components of the institution). In addition, participants will have an opportunity to discuss proven practices and develop responsive strategies by completing a Matrix of Institutional Responsiveness (MIR) for their individual institutions.

(CC-06) City as Campus: A New Model for Communities of Learning
Presenters: David Dixon, Principal/Plng & Urban Dsgn, Goody, Clancy & Associates; Jackie Jenkins-Scott, President, Wheelock College; Dennis Swinford, Sr Plnr, Goody, Clancy & Associates
Changes in student demographics and renewed fascination with urban neighborhoods is building new interest in urban campuses. These campuses are exploring new approaches to adding density while improving the public realm, breaking down traditional barriers and turning whole cities and urban districts into "campuses" that enrich the classic educational experience, and enhancing quality of life for surrounding urban residents. This panel presentation will look at how Berklee College of Music in Boston, University of Memphis, and the Ohio State University in Columbus are creating new models of "campus" out of urban cloth.
Convener: Lori Snyder Garrett, Glave & Holmes Associates
