Characteristics of Ideal Spaces for Science A PKAL Tool: Arriving at spaces for science that serve your community well for years to come requires both knowing what questions to ask and having a vision of what might be. We present a series of questions raised by institutional teams entering into the planning process, as well as a statement of the collective vision of PKAL leaders about the ideal 21st century science building, accompanied by a survey which can be used by individual campuses to determine their collective vision about facilities that serve their community.
What Difference do Improved Facilities Make?, 1988 A Report of the PKAL Committee of Visitors: The COV found rich synergism among curricular innovation and faculty and student morale, externally funded grant support for programs and equipment and new facilities. The impact of new and renovated facilities has been significant. The students learning in these spaces will make an important societal contribution in years to come with the skills and capacities they are developing.
