New business school redefines Xavier gateway

Monday, 25 January 2010

CINCINNATI, OH – As an article in the current issue of the Business Courier of Cincinnati notes, the building now under construction for Williams College of Business at Xavier will transform the school’s learning environment, but it won’t stop there. As part of the new Hoff Academic Quad (with Conaton Learning Commons), the project will provide the public face of Xavier, its towers flanking the newly defined entrance.

The school itself will immerse students in a business-rich environment that brings together not only students and faculty, but also Cincinnati’s business community, called the school’s “third stakeholder,” by Dean Ali Malekzadeh. Facilities include executive-in-residence suites and space for the school’s executive mentoring program.

The business school and learning commons are scheduled for completion in time for the 2010-11 academic year.
