Priscilla Payne Hurd Academic Complex

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Priscilla Payne Hurd Academic Complex is an academic building at Moravian College in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

Built in 2002, it is a technologically advanced classroom facility containing fourteen classrooms, including two tiered lecture halls, with a total seating capacity of 618. All classrooms are "smart" classrooms, with a computer station for the instructor, selected multimedia equipment to match the use of the room, and a ceiling-mounted projector. Two classrooms, set in a bimodal arrangement for teaching, have student computer work-stations around the edge and tablet-arm chairs in the middle of the room. These two classrooms serve as open computer labs for student use when classes are not scheduled there. A computer science lab can also be found on the first floor.

Presently, the College houses the departments of math and computer science, psychology, education, and sociology in the PPHAC. Approximately 60% of the College's students pass through its doors daily.
