Morningside University is set to construct a new facility for its growing School of Business program thanks to a $2 million donation from alumnus Tom Rosen. The donation will allow the university to design and build a new building to accommodate the program’s 300 students, as well as three additional majors that will be added in the coming year.
The current facility, the Lincoln Center, is nearly 50 years old and has become inadequate for the program’s expanding student population. With the new building, school leaders hope to provide a space that can house all of the School of Business students and offer state-of-the-art technology to enhance their learning experience.
The new building will be located between the Science Center and Learning Center, providing business students with closer proximity to other academic buildings on campus. While the planning and design process is just getting started, Morningside University plans to keep the Lincoln Center and potentially repurpose it as a new welcome center for the campus community.
Morningside University’s School of Business program has seen tremendous growth in recent years, and this new facility will not only meet their current needs but also allow for future expansion. The building will be equipped with modern technology and designed to provide an optimal learning environment for students. Additionally, by keeping the Lincoln Center and potentially repurposing it as a welcome center, Morningside University hopes to create a central hub on campus where students can connect with each other and access important resources. Overall, this project represents an exciting opportunity for Morningside University to continue investing in its students’ success and preparing them for future careers in business.
