There's been a couple of changes on campus lately - the largest being the PAC renovation and expansion. The project involves a complete remodel of the current PAC building with a new, 3-story brick structure built atop the former plaza site. We are excited to watch the progress!

A wonderfully engaging talk with @mroth78 "Through a confrontation with your own ignorance and your capacity for wonder, philosophy leads you to listen to other people more carefully, because you realise you don’t have the answers yourself." bit.ly/3jVYaPP Retweeted by Wesleyan University
