University of Arkansas Student Success Center

VCC was tasked with renovating the Student Success Center at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. The Student Success Center now offers a place for academic advisors, the Multicultural Center, student mentors and tutors that offer academic support. The building includes classrooms, conference rooms, offices, collaborating spaces, a food hall, and a Starbucks. There is ample seating for students to gather and study.
VCC overcame several obstacles and challenges, including meeting the intent of the layout for the stone and perfecting the stone carvings throughout the exterior of the building. Since the campus was operating during construction, safety was a major focus for our team. With limited parking and minimal laydown area, careful phasing and logistics applied.
This project was awarded an Associated Builders and Contractors of Arkansas Eagle Award.
