AS&U Gettysburg College Fourjay Welcome Center

Noelker and Hull Associates, Inc.’s Gettysburg College – The Fourjay Welcome Center project, featured in the August 2020 American School & University Educational Interiors Showcase and online at SchoolDesigns.com, is honored for Outstanding Design in Welcome Centers. An annual competition celebrating architects and education institutions for their achievements in outstanding school and university design, the Educational Interior Showcase highlights facilities that meet educational program requirements through a clear project vision and organizational strategy and with an aesthetically pleasing solution. The best in educational interior design incorporate:

  • Interior materials appropriately responsive to age group and school identity;
  • Flexible, adaptable, and agile spaces and furnishings;
  • Durability and ease of maintenance; and
  • Contextual and responsive to community needs and desires.

Located in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, The Fourjay Welcome Center is a two-story, 6,390-square-foot addition to Gettysburg College’s existing admissions building, Eisenhower House. The new welcome center is used for recruiting prospective students and student interviews, and it addresses the need for additional reception space and dedicated presentation space by providing an auditorium with a LCD wall and seating for 60 people on the first floor. On the second floor, which is accessible by an elevator and stairs, four smaller rooms are used for interviews and information counseling for students and their families.

The new facility offers the College additional function space where large groups can gather. When not in use as a recruitment facility, the Welcome Center is a site for social gatherings and special events. Interior finishes include porcelain tile floors and walls, custom fabricated tile floor inlay, wood paneled walls and ceilings, and exposed brick of the original Eisenhower House. The facility creates a strong first impression to visiting students and families and now serves as the “front door” to the campus.

Gettysburg College, a private liberal arts college, offers more than 65 academic programs. The college enrolls about 2,600 students.
