While Queens has remained a source of pride for our community for 150 years, we enter our new Strategic Plan with a goal in excess of $40 million in facilities initiatives to:
• Build a new Duke Energy Sciences and Health Building that will be a LEED-certified, gold-level environmentally designed facility
• Expand athletic facilities at Queens’ Sports Complex at Marion Diehl Park, in partnership with the Mecklenburg County Parks and Recreation Department
• Renovate dormitories and classrooms, such as West formerly known as Walker and Watkins Halls.
 |
|
While Queens’ facilities initiatives include several key construction and renovation projects that will address increased enrollment and meet critical student needs, most important is the University’s new Sciences & Health Building. Considered by many to be the focal point of the University’s plan, the new state-of-the-art facility will help address North Carolina’s healthcare demand, boast a leading-edge “green” technology design and attract new students interested in the sciences.
Lead gifts to the Investing in Queens’ Future Campaign already have had great impact on the campus community.
• The renovated Harris House Welcome Center provides a new gateway to the University.
• The Wither's House renovation into the Center for Lifelong Learning provides an inviting space for community learning
• The new Lion’s Den Grille and Game Room provides the perfect social setting for promoting fellowship among our students.
• The new soccer/lacrosse field at the Sports Complex provides Queens’ athletes with state-of-the-art playing and practice turf, while Rex, the world’s largest standing lion sculpture – rising an impressive 27 feet in the air at the entrance to the Sports Complex – provides an imposing greeting for opposing teams.

Queens’ success relies on its ability to provide students with a transformational experience that lasts a lifetime. Improved spaces for living, learning and growing will move the University forward in a dramatic way. We call upon you to Invest in Queens’ Future.
