Below is a revised program and some bubble diagrams illustrating what I see for adjacencies, proportional relationships, and general grouping of spaces.... at this point, I envision 3 clear levels, one for students staying in the dorms, one for students attending classes, and one for exhibit/public functions.... My square footages have been determined by combinations of graphic standards recommendations, layout requirements for certain space types, historical precedent, and general gut feelings...

Peter, please elaborate on the "dorm": what do you need in there?
Pete,
Very nice programming schedule, the sketches help with the placement and adjacencies mentioned in the report. Is there a need in this program to separate the dorms further into small/group living spaces?
Guys... I have been hesitant to further refine the dorm requirements... I think that I may want multiple configurations, singles, doubles, suites, but am trying to keep that flexible if possible... I know that each student will have a bed, a closet, a work desk, and access to private toilet and shower (this will be shared by no more than 3-4 students).... If I have to get more specific I can do it, but I see this as an opportunity to remain flexible and let the dorm layouts evolve as the design does..
peter, I'm expecting your program to go thru some changes, but I still would like you to detail especially the dorms; I would like to get your personal take on it.
will do....
