Six classrooms, reserved exclusively for Oglethorpe use, are now open and ready for class at the new Gables Brookhaven residential complex. Classes will be held in the new state-of-the-art classrooms beginning next week, just as students return from spring break.
Faculty members who have already signed up to teach in the new facility post-break include: Charlie Baube, Jay Lutz, Mariel Meier, Brian Patterson, Karen Schmeichel, and Iona Wynter Parks.
