What began as a Traffic and Parking Study under the direction of the Campus Master Planning Committee quickly expanded to include numerous related areas of planning and physical improvement: Growth, Wayfinding, Greenspace, Pedestrian Circulation and Safety, Bikeway, Traffic, Parking, and Shuttle Bus. In all of these areas, WKU has made significant progress since 2003. The 2010-2022 Master Plan Update is fashioned after its predecessor, the 2003 GSP Update. Produced by the Campus Master Planning Committee, the 2010-2022 Master Plan updates and documents progress toward stated campus development goals. 1 i. 2010–2022 MaSTEr PlaN uPdaTE The 2010-2022 Master Plan Update uses powerful GIS mapping tools to accurately map existing and proposed future campus features. It builds on previous planning initiatives and recognizes that existing opportunities and challenges must be addressed to support the continued growth of the University. The goals of the 2010-2022 Master Plan Update are to: • Identify the guiding principles used to create this master plan • Highlight priority goals for the next twelve years • Develop an updated atlas of campus maps, accurate for both current conditions and future goals WKU total enrollment is currently approaching 21,000 students. Current goals are to reach enrollment of 24,000 by 2016, and 27,000 by 2022. WKU enrolls some 3,000 graduate students and by 2012 will offer doctoral degrees in three areas. Current international student enrollment is 583, with a projected growth of 12% to 650 by 2022. While the large majority of current enrollment is undergraduates attending classes at the main campus in Bowling Green, growth is expected to be equally distributed among traditional enrollment, on-line course offerings, regional campuses, and graduate enrollment. The location of the main campus near the major transportation corridor of I-65, and the relatively short distance between Bowling Green and the major cosmopolitan areas of Louisville and Nashville, contribute to this growth. Over the past decade, both Bowling Green and Warren County have experienced rapid population growth. In 2010, the US Census Bureau reports 58,067 persons residing inside the city limits of Bowling Green, and 113,792 within Warren County, a population increase of 23% since 2000. With many Warren County residents choosing WKU as their college destination, population growth in the county influences enrollment growth at the University. In order to accommodate anticipated growth, this document looks forward twelve years, and is consistent with the Six-Year Capital Plan submitted to the Kentucky General Assembly each biennium. II. GUIDING PRINCIPLES The guiding principles are tools used in the decision making process to prioritize campus projects for the Master Plan Update. They are shaped by the current economic, fiscal, and strategic environment. The nation is emerging from a deep recession, and it is imperative to make sound decisions in investing limited fiscal resources on campus. In addition, Sustainability Initiatives have emerged as a pillar of WKU’s Strategic Plan. The guiding principles of the 2010-2022 Master Plan are: • • Emphasize fiscal responsibility in capital planning (renovated space vs. new space; increased building density vs. expanded campus boundary) Emphasize fiscal responsibility in operations (shared space vs. dedicated space) • Acquire land as available to facilitate campus expansion • Maintain a walkable and accessible campus by improving pedestrian connections, safety, and aesthetics • Limit or remove vehicles from high-volume pedestrian areas • Incorporate best management practices for sustainability into capital construction projects (House Bill 2, LEED criteria and stormwater management) • Reduce traffic congestion and parking demand by creating multimodal access to campus and increasing transit service • Improve greenspace to enhance the campus environment • Cultivate an on-campus residential community by improving housing and auxiliary services to support student success • Continue to develop a consistent and compatible architectural language that supports historic as well as more modern architectural examples that exist on campus • Develop and maintain building and safety standards for off-campus, WKU-related organizations via the University District 2 iii. PriOriTY GOalS The WKU Campus Master Plan Committee, with input from President Gary Ransdell and Provost Gordon Emslie, and coordination by the office of Planning Design & Construction, has identified numerous goals and projects that are grouped in eight major growth categories: The projects identified for Academic Programs and Facilities are: demand for on-campus housing. Plans for an additional 455 beds include: • Construct Music Rehearsal Hall • Gateway undergraduate apartments: 75 • Renovate the Science Campus Phase IV, including Thompson Complex Center Wing and Planetarium • Kentucky Street non-traditional apartments: 100 • Expansion of Bates-Runner Hall for undergraduates: 200 • Regents Drive undergraduate apartments: 80 • Relocate Gordon Ford College of Business to a new facility • Renovate Grise Hall 3. Campus Environment • Raze Tate Page Hall after above renovations are complete Parking, Transportation and Traffic • Construct Nursing Program Facility Campus-Wide Infrastructure, Energy Efficiency, Sustainability • Construct Honors College / International Programs facility The overall campus feel, function and livability are enhanced by improvements to roads, sidewalks, greenspace, and related amenities such as trees, lighting, signage and site furnishings. A number of projects have been identified to continue to improve the campus environment: 7. Athletics • Renovate Academic Complex 8. WKU-Affiliated Organizations • Renovate Helm Library • Renovate Cravens Library • Renovate Ivan Wilson Fine Arts Center 1. Academic Programs and Facilities 2. Housing and Residence Life 3. Campus Environment 4. Auxiliary and Campus Services 5. 6. The projects for the Bowling Green main campus are depicted on the 2010-2022 Master Plan map (Appendix A3). This includes existing buildings, proposed renovations, proposed new construction, and property to be acquired as available. Site plans for the regional campuses are shown in Appendix B. 1. Academic Programs and Facilities For the next twelve years, academic facilities will continue to be the focus of most renovation and new construction projects. Growth is expected in branch campuses, distance learning, graduate programs, and international programs. The goals are to upgrade, renovate, and/or replace academic facilities to accommodate current academic programs and expected growth. • Renovate Craig Alumni Center and College Heights Foundation Building • Implement planned WKU-community bikeway connection • Minimize pedestrian/vehicle conflicts: • Reroute Hilltop Drive to exit onto College Heights Boulevard (Appendix A4) • Remove on-street parking on Hilltop Drive and Alumni Drive • Improve pedestrian safety on Kentucky Street • Improve traffic flow and pedestrian safety along State Street corridor; enhance pedestrian link to Ogden Science Campus • Create an accessible campus by removing barriers and improving connectivity for those with mobility limitations • Restore South Lawn/Alumni Lawn, addressing needs for greenspace, special events, parking, and pedestrian access and factoring in the both the continued use and future demolition of Tate Page Hall • Enhance campus security to assure a safe working and learning environment for faculty, staff, students, and visitors Regional Campus Network • Construct Glasgow Campus Phase II Building • Construct Owensboro Technology Center Phase II • Construct Elizabethtown Central Regional Education Center 2. Housing and Residence Life An ambitious renovation campaign upgraded all existing residence halls between 2000 and 2009, for a current capacity of approximately 5,000 beds. The University continues to pursue development that encourages on-campus social, cultural, and residential life and reduces the student commuter culture. The goals are to maintain enough housing for freshmen to live on campus and accommodate growing 3 4. Auxiliary and Campus Services 6. Campus-Wide Infrastructure, Energy Efficiency, Sustainability Auxiliary and campus services contribute to the quality of campus life for students, faculty, and staff. As the University continues to grow, expansion of auxiliary and campus services is necessary to support campus life and student success. Priority projects are: To support anticipated growth, WKU continues to invest in critical upgrades to the utility infrastructure for steam, chilled water, communications, and underground electrical service. In addition, the Energy Savings Performance Contract is helping WKU to reduce its energy consumption through a wide range of upgrades and retrofits. Priority projects at this time are: • Renovate Downing University Center Phases IV & V • WKU Gateway development: project-leased space for a 450-space parking deck (Parking Structure 3), the WKU Store, convenience store, coffee shop, and WKU Police Department • Food services projects identified in the 2011 Market Match study • Renovate Garrett Conference Center 5. Parking, Transportation and Traffic Planned projects such as the College of Business building and the Athletics Tennis Complex will decrease parking inventory. In addition, anticipated enrollment growth and expanded on-campus housing will continue to increase demand for services. To meet the shifting demand for services, the principle strategy will be to enhance transit services in the Bowling Green community to maintain access to campus while supporting sustainability goals and minimizing capital costs. Plans for Parking and Transportation are: • Expand park and ride service from existing parking lots in the Bowling Green community to campus for commuting students • Expand access to transit services from campus to the Bowling Green community to support employment, commerce, and leisure opportunities for on-campus residents. • Improve multi-modal access to campus to reduce parking demand and traffic congestion • Construct Parking Structure 4 at the Ogden Science Complex • Explore traffic improvements to ease congestion and enhance vehicular circulation • Upgrade underground electrical infrastructure • Replace steam infrastructure • Upgrade information technology infrastructure • Complete Energy Performance Savings Contract; explore viability of ESPC Phase III • Explore work/class scheduling alternatives and facility use plans to decrease energy use in summer and winter terms 7. Athletics An Athletics Master Plan by Heery International is currently evaluating needs for Track, Tennis, Soccer, Softball, Baseball, and an indoor practice and training facility. 8. WKU-Affiliated Organizations Off-campus student and alumni organizations enhance the WKU experience through social, spiritual, and community service activities. The majority of these WKU-affiliated organizations fall within the boundaries and are subject to the guidelines of an overlay district of the City-County Planning Commission’s University District Review Committee. WKU continues to support these affiliated organizations. Ongoing efforts include: • Construct Augenstein Alumni Center, to include conference facilities and the WKU Welcome Center • Work with City/County to review University District boundaries for possible expansion; • Promote relocation of Greek organizations 4 iV. dEVElOPMENT aNd PlaNNiNG PrOGrESS Significant progress has been made toward the goals identified by Gresham Smith and Partners in the 2003 Master Plan Update.

WKU has been designated a Tree Campus USA by the National Arbor Day Foundation. A6. University District The WKU Department of Planning, Design & Construction, along with several partners, has undertaken an ambitious in-house mapping effort, centered on the development of a reliable campus base map, plus numerous data layers, all organized with the computing power of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). This system will help meet the operational and planning needs on campus. Data layers include locations of buildings, roadways, sidewalks, property lines, utility lines, trees, and even monitoring of deferred maintenance projects. As renovation and new construction projects are completed, detailed information on these projects is added to the GIS system. The GIS maps in Appendix A have consistent base map features. A1.

WKU South Campus WKU has renovated former commercial spaces and/or constructed new facilities for the South Campus Academic Wing, the Knicely Conference Center, the Hattie Preston Intramural Sports Complex, Parking & Transportation Services, and the Center for Research & Development. The site master plan addresses future growth areas and circulation improvements. A8. The WKU regional campus network consists of the following locations: B1. The University District is an overlay district of the City-County Planning Commission. A large majority of WKU-affiliated organizations fall within the District’s boundaries and are subject to guidelines developed and enforced by the Commission’s University District Review Committee. Appendix A: Main Campus GIS Maps Appendix B: Regional Campus Network Maps WKU Farm The 759-acre farm, located about 15 minutes from the Bowling Green main campus, was purchased in 1934. The farm is used by students pursuing careers in all aspects of agriculture, and also for trials and USDA research. The 68,000 square-foot L.D. Brown Agricultural Exposition Center is used for exhibitions, conventions, and meeting activities. The area surrounding the farm is experiencing both commercial and residential growth, and WKU has taken steps to hold the farm in a conservation easement, limiting future pressure to develop the farm. WKU Owensboro WKU-Owensboro is located across Highway 231 from the Owensboro Community and Technical College campus. The 9.5-acre first phase was dedicated in April, 2010. The Campus Master Plan for 28.3 acres was developed by Ross Tarrant Architects. The property is owned by Daviess County Fiscal Court and leased by WKU. B2. WKU Glasgow WKU-Glasgow is a Regional Campus of Western Kentucky University and also houses Bowling Green Technical College’s Glasgow Technology Campus. The 30-acre facility was occupied in 2002 and modular units were added 2007. A feasibility study by Hafer Associates is currently underway to examine expansion possibilities. B3. WKU Elizabethtown WKU-Elizabethtown addresses the educational needs of public school teachers, active duty military and their families in Hardin County. WKUElizabethtown has partnered with Elizabethtown Community and Technical College in constructing and renovating classrooms and office space on the ECTC campus. WKU has developed a master plan to develop the Elizabethtown Central Regional Education Center on an adjacent 20-acre site. WKU Radcliff Regional Education and Development Center • Red building: WKU Building owned by WKU or a related foundation • Red with blue outline: WKU Building slated for renovation • Dark blue building: Proposed new construction • Dashed line: Proposed underground utility upgrade The Radcliff Center opened in 2008 in response to growth in the Radcliff / Ft. Knox area as a result of the federal Military Base Realignment and Closure law. Major new missions were assigned to Ft. Knox resulting in the in-migration of several thousand military and civil service jobs. The facility currently has Interactive Video Studio Classrooms, technology-enhanced classrooms, a computer lab, and staff and faculty offices. Plans are being developed to finish out approximately 18,000 additional square feet of space to further address community needs. • Yellow: WKU-affiliated organization WKU Ft. Knox A4.
