What’s in There?

Almost every day I walk down the campus mall, and I stare into the large windows of the Krone Center. I have never once stepped into the oddly shaped building until today.

Caden Schulte and I were greeted by Carly Hanson, for the university. She is the Associate VP for Marketing and Communication. She told us what goes on in the building, explaining that the departments Marketing/Communications, Career Services, Alumni Relations, Web Development, and Sports Information are all housed in the Krone Center. There are about eight people who work here, not including around 15 student interns. 

It’s a very modern building, with a lot of glass inside the building. Everything there had a modern finish, with a couch and a couple of chairs in the middle of the common space. All of the officers are around this common area, with windows facing inside of it. 

There is a sink as well as a snack bar in the common area, too. Doritos, cookies, and fruit snacks, just to name a few of them. I was told anyone can have them, so I grabbed a bag of chips to put in my bag for later. I told them I would be coming back for more later.

One of the things I noticed as I walked in is that the place smells and looks clean. They must do a solid job of keeping the place looking nice.

In addition, by the snack bar, there is a lot of Morningside swag items. There are tumblers, hats, license plates, and pins.
