"The university's former library building, built in 1954, was renovated to house the studio-arts, art-history, and film and photography programs, along with the university museum. In addition to teaching and gallery space, the building includes a variety of studio spaces for students. New north-facing windows were added on the building's roof to provide light for studio spaces -- and, at the same time, to enliven the roofline. " — Chronicle of Higher Education
