Bay Tree Building Furniture Sit Test Open House

Help shape the future of the Bay Tree Building! Students and staff are invited to stop by a furniture “sit test” open house and share feedback on potential furniture selections for the renovated space.

Hosted by MillerKnoll, Pivot, and Jensen Architects, the open house will give members of the campus community an opportunity to try out furniture and provide feedback on appearance, comfort and inclusive design, durability, cleanability, sustainability, and more through a brief digital survey. Plan for approximately 20 minutes to participate. Project representatives will also be available to answer questions and talk about the renovation.

The Bay Tree Building renovation remains on track for reopening in September 2027. The reimagined building will bring together a student lounge, well-being center, student resource centers, campus store and market, and administrative offices, creating a vibrant hub for Slug Life and a welcoming gathering place for the campus community.

Snacks and beverages will be provided, along with giveaways.

Come take a seat and help shape the future of Slug Life!
