Plan should consider pedestrian entrance areas as well as service <br />and vehicular arrival areas <br />20 Develop a Site Improvement and Landscaping Plan for the entire <br />campus in coordination with the development recommendations <br />of the Campus Master Plan. Special attention should be given <br />to such areas as: <br />21 <br />pedestrian walkways <br />entry areas <br />interior courts <br />parking areas <br />lake orientation <br />student safety <br />The college should <br />make definitive efforts to maintain consistency in building mate- <br />rials (brick and stone) and their use. The Historical Preservation <br />Committee should be used to ensure historical and aesthetic <br />preservation of campus architecture, as the buildings are an <br />expression of who Northwestern College is. It should be remem- <br />bered that the College's image (physical and psychological) is a <br />powerful marketing tool. (Refer to 'Design Guidelines') <br />22 Until anew student/ community center can be built, develop <br />Nazareth Hall's east entry so that it gives prospective students a <br />feeling of welcome and importance. <br />23 As part of educating the whole student, maximize display of stu- <br />dent work throughout campus at appropriate locations. Display- <br />ing artwork on campus in a serious and professional manner will <br />reflect the College's investment in its current students, and also <br />serve as a marketing function with prospective students. <br />24 Establish forum for informal, low key solo and ensemble "con- <br />certs" (with no electronic needs) at various locations on campus. <br />25 Look at ways to capitalize on the campus island and chapel. <br />Appropriate uses could be a nature resource and a spiritual <br />retreat. Other uses could be a student -gathering place and a tool <br />to increase funding from outside sources such as weddings and <br />baptisms. An amphitheater could be developed for plays and <br />concerts to be viewed from the shore or on boats off shore. With <br />the quality of the college's music program, these concerts would <br />be a good public gesture and reinforce the college's standing as <br />a good neighbor. <br />NORTHWESTERN COLLEGE CAMPUS MASTER PLAN PARTNERS & SIRNY ARCHITECTS PAGE 5.6 <br />
