Kade Center
Officially named the Craig Building, the Kade Language and Technology Center is the campus innovation hub. Its team of staff and graduate assistants challenges assumptions about traditional pedagogy, digital and social media, and the role of storytelling. It all adds up to hard work with a dash of play!

During the week, the Samson Center is bustling with students studying, drinking coffee, eating at the cafe, collaborating on group projects, and (only sometimes) watching too much YouTube on their computers.
