Leon Jaworski Center

 

The central hall is home to the Baylor Law Review suite, a quiet study lounge overlooking the river, and a mid-size collection area with a semicircular bay reading area also facing the river.  The semi-circular bay area mirrors, albeit on a smaller scale, the semicircular bay feature of the west wing main reading room in the library. Other student organizations with space requirements also have been provided space elsewhere in the law center.

 

On the second level, just off the curvilinear corridor, the central hall is home to the dean's administrative suite.  The area includes a beautiful hardwood floor reception area and a custom rug with a Texana motif, a very finely appointed and spacious dean's office area with the same  semicircular bay reading area, a study office and a dean's conference room with a very large granite-topped cherry wood trimmed table.  The suite also includes office areas for the admissions, financial aid and registrar operations, as well as a spacious workroom area and a gallery area.  The suite, with a glass wall facing the outer corridor, is designed to impress the many first time visitors who frequent this area.

 

The Career Services Office suite is adjacent to the dean's suite and is in the west library wing. The suite features a comfortable and spacious resources and reception area, seven interview rooms that overlook the courtyard, a conference room, the Leon Jaworski Office and the Judge Frank Wilson Rare Book Room (each of which are used principally as interview rooms), staff offices and a kitchen area. Outside of the on-campus recruitment season, the interview rooms will serve as small group study rooms within the library.
