station, 15 student-accessible computer labs containing nearly 500 systems, cartography lab, early learning center, curriculum materials center, Pennsylvania German Heritage Center, and the Wallops Island marine science consortium facility in Virginia.
The newly constructed Academic Forum within the north campus, opened January 2007, spans 65,000 square feet (6,000 m2) and holds seven smart classrooms for some courses, seating from between 85 and 200 students each, and features a central dining area. Approximately three percent of classes, including 70 of 2,200 sections offered at the university, are taught within the Academic Forum.
Additional renovations to academic buildings and current residence halls attempt to accommodate the rapid expansion of attendance, which has seen an increase of "30 percent from 7,843 in 1996 to a record 10,193 students in the Fall of 2006." The addition to Schaeffer Auditorium is a prime example of one of the many renovation projects.
