Valdosta, Ga.
Valdosta State University initiated a $5.5 million expansion of Bailey Science Center in August of 2011. The 15,000-sf addition will house two flexible 75-seat laboratories, 20 faculty offices, and two 30-seat classrooms. The project supports a pedagogy that provides a larger number of students with core science courses, maximizing available personnel to generate cost savings. The project team includes architect Stanley Beaman and Sears and general contractor Elkins Constructors. Occupancy is expected in fall of 2012.
