Description

The Cal Turner Family Center for Student Education opened in 2014 as the first new building at Meharry Medical College completed since 1978. The center includes classrooms, boardrooms, and meeting areas of all sizes as well as several other resources for students such as a café, registrar’s office, and a school spirit shop. The building is also LEED certified and incorporates natural greenery instead of a traditional roofing system to reduce the building’s environmental impact.
