"Stretching into a gentle S-curve 17 feet above a busy four-lane road, this dramatic new structure houses the university's School of Information Sciences and Technology and the department of computer science and engineering. It has 16,800 square feet of lab space that can be reconfigured as students' projects require, wireless Internet access, and a 150-seat auditorium, among other amenities. It also has a cafe and a walkway that permits pedestrians and bicyclists to cross the road below safely. " — Chronicle of Higher Education
