Cornell’s S.C. Johnson Graduate School of Management has transformed Sage Hall from an aging 19th Century campus landmark into a 21st Century standard of architectural, technological and educational distinction. Located at the heart of the Cornell campus, Sage Hall offers students access to the kind of cutting-edge environment found in top corporations. The Hillier Group of Princeton, New Jersey, led the $38.2 million reconstruction project.

Built in 1875 as a Women’s College, the new Sage Hall combines a physical environment designed to increase interaction among people with a high-tech infrastructure to support the School’s technology-enhanced management curriculum. Open spaces, such as the three-story Dyson Atrium, and other sitting areas increases interactions among Students, Faculty and Visiting Executives. Advanced technologies such as teleconferencing capabilities, high-bandwidth fiber-optic cable and a Wall Street trading room provide real-time connections around the globe.

The Parker Center for Investment Research includes high-speed data lines and more than $1.5 million of the same sophisticated software used by investment managers. As a result, Johnson School students have the opportunity to do real-time analysis with the same software Wall Street analyst's use and to trade securities using real money.

Sage Hall includes:

Three-story, sky-lit Atrium in the center courtyard;

Eight amphitheater-type classrooms and 29 Breakout Rooms;

Classrooms wired for two-way distance learning, with cameras, projectors, network feeds and phone lines;

Laptop connections readily available at every classroom seat, and in all Breakout and Seminar Rooms, the Library and Lounge areas;

High-quality production facility (printers, scanning equipment and digital cameras) and multimedia laboratory (digital video editing system) open to Students, Faculty and Staff; and

High bandwidth circuits, on demand, in every office and classroom, as well as in the Library, labs and special research areas powered by a fiber optic network running throughout the School.

To accommodate the Johnson School, the 104,000 square foot, U-shaped building was expanded to 145,000 square feet, and was dedicated in the Fall of 1998.
