Courses will be taught using clickers, a technology that allows students in even large lecture halls to interact more effectively with the instructor. Inspired by one of the building s spacious flex rooms, RBS is introducing a new course emphasizing teamwork and leadership skills. Two solar fields on campus will supply electrical power and a large geothermal system, with more than 300 holes reaching a depth of 500 feet underground, will heat and cool the building.
