New seminar room MC3107
We’re building 12 new seminar and lecture rooms for this September. Here’s one of them: MC3107 in the MHT Building, a new seminar room for 29 people.

MC3107 will be one of nine ‘fluid layout’ seminar rooms on campus by September. The room will be equipped with Node chairs and mobile whiteboards to enable rapid transitions between front-facing presentations and small group activities. With no ‘correct’ layout and plenty of space per person, students and staff will be able to move around easily to suit their activities.
With natural light and great views to the north and west, we think MC3107 will become an exciting place for interactive, creative seminars. MC3107 will also be bookable by students and staff, as are all seminar and lecture rooms on campus.
Rolling out more Node chairs
The Node seminar chairs installed in MB1012, MB1019 and MB1020 last summer have proven hugely popular. We’re adding six more Node-equipped seminar rooms for September.
Your favourite quotations
We would like to build thoughts about teaching, learning and knowledge into the fabric of the new teaching and learning spaces we are building this summer, in the form of graphics on the walls or windows.
What are your favourite quotations regarding teaching, learning or knowledge? Post them in the comments and there’s a chance they will appear on campus this September.
