The “convening stair” has now been installed in Jackson Library’s tower. This is an exciting step in the renovation process. As this area continues to develop, there will be additional designs added to the wall and railing to complete the staircase. Early feedback indicates excitement related to the “look and feel” between the first and second floors of the tower. This feature is already providing an inviting view that students, staff, and faculty will love.
