DE PERE – The most visible corner of the St. Norbert College (SNC) campus, along the banks of the Fox River, will soon be the location of Donald and Patricia Schneider Family Hall, which is made possible by a lead gift from the Schneider family.
The new building will be the home of the Donald J. Schneider School of Business & Economics and will be constructed on the site previously occupied by the Pennings Activity Center – the former Pennings High School.
Work will begin on the project this month and the new Schneider Family Hall will be completed in time for fall classes in 2025.
President of SNC Laurie M. Joyner said the new hall will help advance generations of business leaders, as well as the regional and national economy.
“It will fortify St. Norbert College’s pivotal role in the Wisconsin business community, igniting a multitude of new opportunities for those who live, learn and work here,” she said.
The 45,000-square-foot, multi-use facility will house classrooms and workspaces designed to foster contemporary learning for both undergraduate and graduate business and economics programs.
It will also provide space for executive education and conferencing opportunities and a connected terrace for gatherings along the Fox River.
Miron Construction is the general contractor, and Workshop Architects of Milwaukee designed the building.
