Welcome to the Building Blueprint series!
We know that campus can be
confusing. There are so many buildings and so many offices, that a campus map
doesn’t always lead you to the right place. Looking for the Education Abroad
office, a random classroom, or something else? We’ll help you get there.
First in our series, we are
focusing on The Annex. After reading, be sure to watch our video tour with
Samantha Stein, Marketing Intern!
Formerly known as Hamilton
House, The Annex has been around since 1942. It was originally an all-female
dormitory created to teach women to live cooperatively and later served as
housing for those in need. The space was acquired by Academic Enhancement and renovated
to become The Annex during Spring 2013. The Annex first opened to students for
use over Summer 2013.
The Annex is home to some of
Academic Enhancement’s offices, but, more importantly, houses Peer Academic
Coaching (PAC). PAC is free and offered by appointment only for specific,
high-stakes courses. Sessions help
students develop learning and study strategies tailored to a course. The
schedule can be found here and appointments can be
made on myUK.
To find The Annex, the best
place to start is North Campus. It’s a white house situated on South Limestone,
directly across from Chipotle. Coming from the Student Center, it’s the
building to the left of Keeneland Hall.
Hidden necessities: The actual “front” door from the front porch on South Limestone can’t
be used—you must use the back entrance, closest to Keeneland Hall, instead! Walk
on in and the desk worker can answer any other questions you have.
Go check out The Annex
yourself, and let us know if we left something out. Check back soon for our
investigation of Barker and Frazee halls.
