UK Design Completes First Phase of Pence Hall Renovation

LEXINGTON, Ky. (May 6, 2014) — The University of Kentucky College of Design (CoD) has recently completed the first phase of the renovation of Pence Hall.

A former studio space has been transformed into the Student Services Suite, complete with an expanded space for record storage, as well as a lounge area where students can wait to meet with academic advisors.

Also completed is the new UK/CoD Student Recruitment Center. Prospective students can use the space to meet with the college recruitment director, faculty and current students. The recruitment center also includes a display area for student work.

The next phase of the renovations, which will include a new reception area and directors’ suite, will begin in May.
