The Boat Race

St. Mary Student Parish | University of Michigan

Ahead of the Easter and Passover season, we present our ongoing coverage of best practice literature for architectural design and engineering of worship and reflection spaces in educational settlements.  Our Ann Arbor office door is open until 12 noon today.

Chapels in colleges and universities hold significant importance in the academic and spiritual life of these institutions. Beyond serving as places of worship, they often embody the founding principles and values of the educational establishment. Architecturally, many college chapels are designed as architectural masterpieces, reflecting the institution’s commitment to excellence and beauty.

These chapels serve as gathering places for the campus community, fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose. They provide a sanctuary for students, faculty, and staff to find solace, reflection, and spiritual guidance during their academic journey. Moreover, college chapels host various events, such as convocations, ceremonies such as weddings and christenings.

Historically, many colleges and universities were founded on religious principles, and their chapels serve as a reminder of their heritage and tradition. These sacred spaces play a crucial role in nurturing the holistic development of students, combining intellectual growth with spiritual and moral enrichment, ultimately shaping well-rounded individuals prepared for life’s challenges.

Today we run a status check on public consultations released by ANSI-accredited and finance industry consortia whose involvement affects the cost of US education communities.   Ahead of quarterly county elections we examine a few tax-free bond referenda on ballots across the US for insight into the money flow through education communities.

Having the statue of the great Adam Smith, standing just outside of my office. I overhear many a conversation taking place. He seems beloved by our international students & visitors, yet, little known by very many at home – hopefully, this changes that! pic.twitter.com/6wYkvxMtxW
