RESEARCH AREAS

-CURRENT COSTS research about the cost of any serious renovations (might include cost to install and maintain current facilities).

-LOGISTICS research logistics and any attending costs for alternative methods*  (you might break this section up and have a couple of folks look at logistics for different alternative methods)

-SISTER SITUATIONS you may see if you can’t find out what business buildings with a lot of vertical traffic do (and even I imagine the Graduate Center  might be a little comparable)

-EXISTING CAMPUS GROUNDS PLAN (what is currently being done to maintain equipment?  are there plans for renovations in either building any time soon?  is this a problem listed in any of the college’s official plans or goals? what office/person or peoples is largely responsible for overseeing this equipment? also you will want to know whether Baruch already has a venue for hearing students’ concerns about these issues?)

 

*PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES

Staggering class time so as to minimize overlap traffic

Designated elevator per floor (six elevators= 1 elevator for each floor aka the extreme express)

Lower levels for class rooms and put study rooms up high
