James E. Hoff, S.J., Academic Quad

The James E. Hoff, S.J., Academic Quad enables Xavier to meet student expectations and learning needs as well as any college or university in the nation. The quad is built around two academic-based components and supported by a new central utility plant.

The Learning Commons

This high-tech, highly social center for learning outside the classroom serves as a hallmark for Xavier's future, a unique facility within American higher education. The Learning Commons is integrated with and complemented by the renovation and modernization of the Alter Hall classroom building and McDonald Library.

Williams College of Business

This new facility better and more fully serves the Williams College of Business, creating the space necessary to more fully develop and enhance partnerships among students, the business community, faculty and staff. This new facility will provide Xavier a world-class, technologically advanced resource.

A "Green" Tradition Continues

Xavier has a tradition of responsible stewardship of resources, and the new construction continues this legacy. The Hoff Academic Quad is being constructed to meet LEED Silver Certification sustainability standards as set forth by the U.S. Green Building Council. As part of this effort, the University is constructing a new central utility plant to serve the Hoff Academic Quad.
