The Rangos Family Foundation Building was completed and occupied in
2001. We are proud of (and humbled by) this building, which represents
a decade of planning, fund-raising, and construction. The 28,700
sq ft Rangos Building is home to the seminary library, chief administrative
offices, and the Metropolitan Philip Auditorium.
The building features a central atrium, reception area,
mailroom, and a staff lounge; it houses a business office, a technology
office and storage space, four institutional advancement offices,
offices for the dean and his assistant, the CFO, the associate dean
for academic affairs, the director of recruitment and the communications
officer.
The Metropolitan Philip Auditorium, located on the top
floor, can seat 250, and has a central sound system and attendant
catering kitchen.
The library comprises
two separate but interconnecting floors and includes a circulation
area, three offices, work space, a cataloging office, two acoustical
seminar/study rooms (one of which is outfitted with audio/video
facilities), a reading room with seating for forty-five, and an
accessible but secure stacks area with compact shelving for a maximum
capacity of more than 250,000 volumes.
The Rangos Building also houses the seminary's computer
servers, and is pre-wired with enhanced cat-5 wiring connecting 384
separate ports.
