In “Building a better campus”, the construction and planning of higher education’s, like universities, buildings is discussed. It is stated that around 50% of a group surveyed said that they have planned, will plan, or have already built new buildings for students to use! It was also stated the main purpose for construction was student growth, and the type of buildings receiving the most construction and renovation would be academic buildings. Lastly, the journal describe that a campus’ beauty and environment had an important role in students’ decisions to attend or not. Many students are attracted to newer buildings and schools with scenic areas, so the campuses are an influential and important variable for universities.

One quote that I believe is significant is the statement that 47% of major new construction projects and 37% of renovation projects are for the purpose of building academic buildings. This meant to me that my university’s statistics should generally be around the same amount if it means that they truly care about my education.
