The building is designed to meet the needs of faculty and students alike.

Inside, student facilities include a student commons, an executive commons, and a separate room for the student clubs. Sitting areas are located throughout the building.

The dining hall hosts a variety of activities–from Dean’s Lecture receptions to company presentations to the morning faculty–student coffee colloquia.

Outside, one can find a calming atmosphere in the Woodson Courtyard. The courtyard, composed of Texas pink granite pavers, specialized grass panels, and a two-tiered cascading water fountain, hosts the beloved partios each week. Teak benches, useful for both relaxing and studying, are placed around the perimeter of the courtyard.
