proximity to central gathering place for colleagues |
I wish it opened into a common area. This would make the office feel more secure, it would allow me to keep my door open in winter and would allow for better air circulation, and would create a space to interact with colleagues over coffee breaks, etc. |
What ONE THING would make the overall campus workplace setting more inviting--a place that you'd like to spend more time with colleagues and students?

Comments:
equitable distribution of good office space (I moved 6 times before landing in my office!)--altho' more shared social spaces--a real cafe, better food services with pleasant atmosphere--would rank a close second. |
a more comfortable coffee shop area. I would like to see more comfortable furniture near Spikes in the common space outside the library. That has the potential for an active meeting area but doesn't have a comfortable feel about it. It has a great view and could be much better with chairs and couches that would invite people sitting and talking. |
Faculty gathering place |
Break rooms / lunch rooms. Right now I generally end up eating lunch by myself. A convenient and comfortable break room would improve camaraderie. |
More natural opportunity to interact with other faculty on campus (like faculty lounge). |

Comments:
Some of the faculty offices are not very good because of lighting, locking and proximity to colleagues. |
Group faculty offices by discipline Add faculty lounge for interdisciplinary interactions |
Faculty need private offices--even if they are smaller than currently provided. Cubicles or shared spaces are not acceptable. |
