Dolce Vita
Elior Collegiate Dining is WVU's new food service partner (having taken over in July 2025 when the university ended its contract with Sodexo). It manages 'global nutrition experiences' across all WVU campuses. The collaboration operates under the name WVU Hospitality Group and, presumably, more effective than student run coffee spots; less the charming inefficiencies of student run cafe's.
Family Housing
The demographic cliff facing US colleges and universities is exacerbated by its contribution to the delay in family formation, creating a partial feedback loop in lower future birth rates and thus fewer future students. Today at the usual hour we examine case studies of residential building projects that support family formation and proximate to the center of daily campus milieu.

Quadrivium: Autumn
Educational settlements should be magical places. The stack informing the beauty of these "cities-within-cities" changes 100 to 1000 times per day globally. We monitor the action continuously to formulate response to public consultations. Topics appear on our CALENDAR and explored every day at 15:00 UTC.
Bulletin Board
Curated list of open consultations and calls for information from state, federal and global agencies.
Graduation, Dating, Engagements, Weddings, Births & Obituaries
Pairing young people with a lifetime bond may be the most enduring reason for educational settlements to exist; and one that has received subtle disregard by higher education administrators and marketers of the "college experience".
Current Issues & Recent Research
We are tooling up for the NFPA 2029 National Electrical Code Technical Committee Meetings in September and the IEEE Industrial Applications Society Meetings in October.
