The unique partnership involving industry and foundations in ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ-BoulderÂ’s new $17 million Integrated Teaching and Learning Laboratory may be a harbinger of similar collaborations around the nation, according to engineering Dean Ross Corotis. “Industry has not traditionally been involved in the educational process of engineers,” said Corotis. “But I think the overwhelming support we have received on this project is a signal the private sector is acknowledging their stake in the quality of engineering education.”

Michael Haines, a national expert on campus substance abuse, will participate in several panels and presentations on the ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ-Boulder campus, Friday, April 18.

Original plans called for the fraternity to move out of the temporary quarters in January 1997, when the university was scheduled to begin renovating the space for its Continuing Education program.
