We want to create a courtyard that can serve as an area for students to sit back and socialize with other students. We want to include a stage, seating areas, and a cafe. The cafe will be located on the top of the seating area with free wifi. This area will have bike racks and an area to walk. There will be a second area that is quiet so that students can do homework or study. This area would only be for seniors since the courtyard wouldnt be able to accommodate 3000 students.
