FileThe marquee exterior fixture of the W. Frank Barton School of Business鈥� new home, Wayne and Kay Woolsey Hall, has been officially named the Promise Bridge. The 300-foot-long pedestrian bridge will span over a water feature south of the building.
鈥淭he Promise Bridge is a literal and symbolic connection between 成人头条鈥檚 main campus and our Innovation Campus. It鈥檚 a physical manifestation of the promise we make to our students, faculty, staff, alumni, and partners,鈥� said Dr. Larisa Genin, dean of the Barton School of Business.
The Promise Bridge鈥檚 intentional Y-shape is not only beautiful architectural characteristic, but it is a representation of the business school鈥檚 and 成人头条 State鈥檚 commitment to academics, research, and industry.
Construction of the Promise Bridge is slated to begin in August and is supported by private funds through the WSU Foundation. Genin hopes its sleek features 鈥� which include an observation deck 鈥� will make the bridge a destination for not just the campus community but for all 成人头条ns.
鈥淭he Promise Bridge is sure to be a destination and gathering place for our campus community, but also to the greater 成人头条 community,鈥� said Dr. Rick Muma, president of 成人头条. 鈥淎nd it鈥檚 location between the Innovation and main campus will serve to strengthen our current partnerships and encourage future investment in 成人头条 and its students.鈥�
