What They’re Saying

“I was in sheer amazement when I walked into the building and witnessed the social staircase. This is incredible and this is a real place where people can collaborate. As I was walking around the building, I saw students interacting with each other in these collaborative environments and I think that’s what business is – it is collaborative in nature and you never know who you’ll meet. Having a space like Reynolds Hall, compared to the old building, is a place where you can truly run into people and work with them in spaces meant for collaborating. It will benefit generations to come as students come in and meet others, and think about what they want to do in their career.” – Carter Newman, two-time Chambers College graduate (B.S. in Economics, 2021 and M.S. in Finance, 2022) and current research analyst at Gardner Lewis Asset Management

"Reynolds Hall has me in complete awe. It's evident that creating a space where future business leaders are made was at the forefront of the design. It really is a hub for business learning." – Rachel Stump, a hospitality and tourism management and marketing senior.

Alexsa Ruiz, a management information systems (MIS) senior with a minor in data analytics, spoke during our grand opening ceremony of Reynolds Hall on Friday, August 26.

“The new building is a chance for every single student to find their niche. For me, I am most excited to utilize the data analytics lab because I will get a chance to collaborate with my fellow peers to solve real world problems to help us excel in the workforce. Everyone has a different learning style and I believe that Reynolds Hall will help those that need face-to-face interactions and hands-on learning experiences like myself.” – Alexsa Ruiz, a management information systems (MIS) senior with a minor in data analytics
