G. Wayne Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons, Educational complex at Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, United States.
The G. Wayne Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons is a five-story building on the campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta. It houses classrooms, science labs, study areas, and a central glass atrium that fills the interior with natural light.
The building opened in 2011 and was named after G. Wayne Clough, a former president of the Georgia Institute of Technology. It was built as part of a broader effort to expand and modernize the campus's learning facilities.
The building is known on campus as a place where students from very different fields sit side by side and work together on projects. Walking through it, you can see groups gathered at open tables, mixing engineering students with those from other disciplines.
The building is open around the clock, so it can be visited at any time of day or night. It has two large auditoriums, tutoring offices, and technical support services all in one place, which makes it easy to find what you need.
Beneath the building, a tank stores around 1.4 million gallons (about 5.3 million liters) of rainwater that is collected and reused throughout the facility. This underground system is invisible to visitors but handles a large share of the building's daily water needs.
