Woolsey Hall, home of the Barton School of Business, recently underwent its first strategic exterior landscaping cycle under the watchful eye of Rick Case, WSU’s first gentleman. Case was kind enough to volunteer his time to the project, guiding and facilitating the reimagining and amplification of Woosley Hall’s exterior while also ensuring that the building retained its LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold Certification status. LEED is the most widely used green building rating system in the world and an international symbol of excellence.
“We are honored to have Rick volunteer his time to re-envision the Woolsey Hall landscape,” said Dr. Larisa Genin, dean of the Barton School. “His extensive background in agronomy and his love for the university makes him the perfect person to help elevate Woolsey Hall as a marquee location on campus and in the region. His hard work and collaboration with the WSU Facilities team has already made a massive impact on our home.”
