Consider the Student Services Building for the University of California, Berkeley, which encourages students to interact by bringing together dining halls and student services once scattered across the campus. Or Matapeake Elementary School, in Stevensville, Maryland, which celebrates its unique ecological location on Kent Island in the Chesapeake Bay by serving as a living marine observatory for its students. Or the renovated and expanded Student Recreation Center at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, offering students an attractive and versatile environment to stay fit, enjoy group activity or simply work off excess energy." "These and many other recently completed installations offer design solutions that can be immediately applied throughout the nation. Indeed, Educational Environments No. 2 is arranged for frequent use. All projects are indexed for easy reference to aid professionals engaged in the planning and design of schools, colleges and other educational facilities to renew the American way of life in the 21st century."--BOOK JACKET.
