The Center for Peace and Global Citizenship grew out of faculty and student interests that emerged in the late 1990s. Since then, the Center has developed and expanded into a flourishing nexus of social responsibility, civic engagement, and global peace work, both on campus and in the greater community.

Then & Now: Magill Library Now

Magill Library

Magill Library will be transformed by a renovation and revitalization that is scheduled to begin in January, 2018. The building will be renamed Lutnick Library in recognition of a $25 million lead gift from Howard Lutnick '83. Planned changes include enhanced technology, open and flexible spaces, increased accessibility for special collections, and a café. Heritage spaces, including the Magill Wing and its historic façade on Founders Green, will be preserved.
