The G. Wayne Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons is a five-story building at Georgia Institute of Technology containing 220,000 square feet of space. Inside are classrooms, science laboratories, study areas, and a central glass atrium.
The building opened in 2011 with an 85 million dollar investment and is named after G. Wayne Clough, a former president of the institute. Its construction marked a major expansion of learning facilities on campus.
The building serves as a gathering place where students from different academic fields work on projects together and share ideas. This cross-disciplinary collaboration shapes how the space functions daily.
The complex has 41 classrooms, two 300-seat auditoriums, tutoring offices, and technical support services. The facility is open 24 hours daily, so visitors can explore it at any time.
The roof features a solar array that generates about 118 megawatt-hours of energy annually. Below ground, a storage system with 1.4 million gallons of water collects rainwater for use throughout the building.
