An inviting and architecturally stunning space for community events and social interactions.
Zimmerman Family Foundation Atrium
Visitors to the Judy Genshaft Honors College are welcomed by a breathtaking 5-story view of the heart of the building as soon as they enter the atrium. From here guests can see bustling activity on each floor and have a direct line of sight into the forum, an active event space. The atrium is home to our reception area, massive video wall, and space for Honors events, such as Honors graduation, convocation, receptions, and other special celebrations.
The Forum
Visible from the atrium, the second-floor terrace, and the building’s exterior, this 150-person event space can be separated from the atrium with a retractable wall. Here we will host college and university-wide events, distinguished faculty lectures, student presentations, performances, and collaborative learning opportunities.
The Café
USF students, faculty, staff, and guests can all enjoy a cup of Buddy Brew Coffee and our ground floor indoor/outdoor café. Conversation and collaboration will always be on order, as guests can choose to sit tucked in the comfortable indoor seating area, or outside on our spacious café patio.
Rhea Law and Wayne Williams Grand Staircase
Visible to pedestrian traffic on Sessums Mall and Judy Genshaft Drive, this bustling staircase provides students with quick access to the atrium and second-floor student collaboration space.
