Distinguished guests celebrated the new renovation project that began with the Thiel College Academic Center Groundbreaking ceremony.
“This project is a reflection of the academic priorities of Thiel College,” commented Thiel College President Dr. Susan Traverso during a groundbreaking ceremony for a renovation project at Thiel College’s Daniel and Dorothy Spence Academic Center.
The ThenDesign Architecture team is thrilled to continue working with Thiel College to bring this new renovation to life!
According to a press release, the $4 million project includes enhancements to the building’s entrance, updated technology, and space for collaboration and represents a “significant investment” in the Nursing program.

A Transformative Renovation
Speakers at the ceremony included Rod Wilt, executive director of Penn-Northwest Development Corp. and chair of the college board of trustees, Dr. Greg Butcher, vice president for academic affairs and dean of the college, and Audra Franley, coordinator of campus ministries.
Future enhancements are set to modernize labs, classrooms, and the entrance to Langenheim Memorial Library.
Initially dedicated in April 1971, the Academic Center is a multi-level educational complex that features 11 classrooms, the 300-seat Bly Lecture Hall, five seminar rooms, 24 laboratories, a computer center, five specialized teaching facilities, and 55 faculty offices.
Thiel College is an independent liberal arts, sciences, and professional studies institution committed to providing quality undergraduate education. Promoting educational excellence, innovation, and ethical leadership, the College offers distinctive learning opportunities for students and serves as an asset for the region’s social, economic, and educational development.
Renovation of the Daniel and Dorothy Spence Academic Center is a multi-phased project that will continue over the next several years.
