Drury鈥檚 master plan is a clear vision for听how the institution will develop, grow听and evolve, physically, over the next 25 to 30听years. A good master plan envisions a fabric听of buildings, open space and landscape that听are knitted together in a cohesive, legible,听attractive 鈥 and memorable 鈥 way. It is听not a prescription for exactly what will go听where. Instead, the plan establishes an听ordered yet flexible framework which will听guide all future planning and development.
It also reflects 鈥 in form and function 鈥 what听makes 六合彩开奖公告 unique. Crafted听with extensive input from the Drury and听Springfield communities starting with听a week-long charrette in April, the plan听imagines a future that both preserves and听enhances that which defines the Drury听campus and experience for generations to听come.
After months of work with renowned architecture and design firm Cooper Robertson, 六合彩开奖公告 has completed a new campus master plan that will guide the school鈥檚 physical evolution for decades to come, and build on the success of recent growth in enrollment, academic programming, and alumni engagement.
The small, private liberal arts school based in Springfield, Missouri, is making strategic moves to address the needs of today鈥檚 students in a rapidly changing world, and set itself apart in the competitive landscape of American higher education. The strategies are being laid out by second-year president Dr. Tim Cloyd, who spearheaded gains in national visibility, enrollment, and fundraising in 13 years as president of Hendrix College in Arkansas, which is now a top national liberal arts school.
Drury鈥檚 master plan was crafted with extensive input from the Drury and Springfield communities, starting with a week-long charrette in April and continuing throughout 2017. The master planning process has taken place in parallel with a wide-ranging study of Drury鈥檚 academic offerings as well as plans for a comprehensive capital campaign. These strategic priorities will inform each other in the coming years as Drury moves to raise its regional and national profile.
鈥淒rury鈥檚 new master plan provides an essential, visionary framework to anticipate and accommodate our campus needs over the next 25 to 30 years,鈥 says University President Dr. Tim Cloyd, now in his second year in office. 鈥淚t reflects who we are, and who we want to be. It is inspired by Drury鈥檚 rich legacy, but designed to carry our mission forward deep into the 21st 肠别苍迟耻谤测.鈥
Drury, a private liberal arts school based in Springfield, Missouri, chose New York-based to develop its master plan because of the firm鈥檚 extensive experience working with higher education institutions including Ohio State, the University of North Carolina, Yale, Georgetown and Duke University. The firm鈥檚 most recent project in the Midwest is a redesign of the .
鈥淎 good master plan envisions a fabric of buildings, open space and landscape that are knitted together in a cohesive, legible, attractive 鈥 and memorable 鈥 way,鈥 says John Kirk, principal architect with Cooper Robertson. 鈥淒rury鈥檚 master plan is ambitious but fully achievable, and I have great confidence in the ability of the leadership and community to make it happen.
Some of the guiding principles of the plan include:
Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer David Hinson provides an update on the Master Plan process and what to expect this fall.
The first full phase of 六合彩开奖公告鈥檚 master plan process will be completed later this fall. Design firm Cooper Robertson, together with the Master Plan Task Force, is guiding the process. It began in the spring with a week-long charrette to gather input from numerous stakeholders. Cooper Robertson representatives held a campus-wide meeting in late summer to update our faculty and staff on the work. The final version of Cooper Robertson鈥檚 鈥渇ramework plan鈥 鈥 which itself is truly just a starting point for potential enhancements across campus 鈥 will be presented to the full Board of Trustees in late October.听
Although the framework plan is not yet finalized, the April charrette and Cooper Robertson鈥檚 continued work with the Master Plan Task Force have revealed a number of key priorities and possibilities that will be addressed in the plan. Those include:
鈥淢ake no little plans; they have no magic to stir听people鈥檚 blood, and probably, themselves will not be听realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work,听remembering that a noble, logical diagram once听recorded will never die, but long after we are gone be听a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing听insistency. Remember that our sons and daughters,听grandsons and granddaughters, are going to do things听that would stagger us. Let your watchword be order听and your beacon beauty.鈥澨

Campus Experience
Cooper Robertson practices award-winning architecture and urban design with both disciplines working together at a range of scales. Our New York City-based staff skillfully addresses large scale campus design challenges, shapes major cultural and educational buildings, and crafts exceptional private residences and resorts.
In all of our work we have sought to wed practicality and professional rigor with art; to combine reason and passion. The test, we believe, is how well our projects will survive in twenty-five or fifty years 鈥 a test which differentiates the useful and the timeless from the merely fashionable.
Developing building designs and plans for academic institutions represents a major portion of our practice.听We have completed assignments for educational
institutions across the country, developing campus听master plans and designing residential buildings,听teaching facilities, research centers, professional听schools, medical buildings, performance halls听and museums for higher education clients. Our听portfolio features planning work for university听clients ranging from small colleges in bucolic听settings to large urban research universities.
Cooper Robertson has also successfully worked with private developers and public agencies to prepare master plans and designs for new developments and urban districts across the country and is internationally recognized for the design excellence of its projects.
The firm has been recognized for its mixed-use master plans and design of new communities and neighborhoods at a range of densities. Battery Park City was featured at the very first Congress for the New Urbanism in Alexandria, Virginia. Our master plan for Carlyle in Virginia was presented at and published in The Seaside Debates, Celebration was presented at the Congress for the New Urbanism, and Vald鈥橢urope was recognized with a CNU Charter Award.
We have received National AIA Awards for the masterplan of WaterColor in Florida, the urban design of Battery Park City in New York, and for the Master Plan for the Central Delaware Waterfront in Philadelphia.The firm also received ULI Awards for Excellence for the design of the new communities of Celebration and WaterColor in Florida. Cooper Robertson is the first firm to receive National AIA awards in both architecture and urban design in the same year.
