UCalgary officially opens Mathison Hall

The University of Calgary has officially opened Mathison Hall at the Haskayne School of Business. The building will unite business students in one place and increase Haskayne’s capacity. Some highlights of the new building include twelve technology-enhanced classrooms, an 80-person round room for discussion and dialogue, the graduate student floor, and collision spaces to encourage students to gather and work together. The building itself aims to achieve LEED platinum certification. “With the official opening of Mathison Hall, we are going to help start hundreds and thousands of careers – ones that will make Canada’s most enterprising city even more so, propelled by the entrepreneurial thinking that runs through the university’s DNA,” said UCalgary President Ed McCauley.
