Two architectural designs taking shape at Cal State Fullerton
have been recognized by American School & University

university’s
College
of Business and Economics — and the Fullerton
Arboretum Visitor Center were recognized as “Outstanding
Designs for Work in Progress” in
the publication’s Architectural Portfolio for 2005.

a large courtyard. Included in the facility are a museum,
conference center and classrooms. Contractor is Construct
One. The center is scheduled to open March 21.
