Description
New Technology Classroom Facilities for Dakota State University in Madison, South Dakota have been integrated into the old Performing Arts Center facility, also known as the original Women's Gym constructed in 1910. The Technology Classrooms and associated uses are the third adaptive reuse of this historic campus structure over the past 93 years.

An assessment performed by Koch Hazard Architects with the DSU senior staff identified the need for an additional classroom and lecture hall space with full distance learning capability adn the latest in technology to accommodate the significant grownth enrollment at DSU.

The original large upper floor gymnasium space has been renovated as a lecture hall and the suspended running track overlooking the gym is designed for office space and a new state-of-the-art computer lab.

The main level provides two large distance learning/e-learning classrooms and an instructional conference room for student, faculty and community uses as well as offices for the distance education department. Historic roof and window replacement round out the preservation and adaptive re-use program and re-establish the building campus landmark with a new mission.
