RIT School of Business project celebrates grand opening

On August 28, LeChase joined faculty, students and donors at the Rochester Institute of Technology to celebrate the grand opening of the newly expanded Saunders College of Business in Max Lowenthal Hall. CEO and Managing Partner Bill Goodrich, Executive Vice President and COO Kyle Sayers and Senior Vice Presidents Jim McKenna and Lee Sommerman attended the event with project team members Dan Schleher, Nate Scheffinger and Charlie Spencer.

The facility now features upgraded classrooms and offices, as well as a new four-story, 36,000-SF expansion. The expansion includes additional learning and collaboration spaces for students, such as team rooms, applied research and case analysis labs, an event space and reception hall, an auditorium, a café and outdoor areas.

LeChase served as the construction manager on the project, partnering with architect Labella Associates.
