Neff Center for Place-based Education

The purpose of the Neff Center is to mutually enrich University and northern Flint communities through place based education, research, and student services.

The facility includes offices and space for classes, faculty research, student services, meetings, and collaborative work while serving as a home base for students and faculty working on projects in northern Flint communities.

• Slated to open in March of 2013, the 3500 sq. ft. facility occupies the northwest wing of Beecher Community School District’s combined middle-high school.

• Conducted under the auspices of the Office of the Provost and University Outreach, the facility will accommodate engaged teaching and research projects, while also offering space for an increasing number of University programs involving students, citizens, and organizations.

• The establishment of the Neff Center would not be possible without the generosity and strong desire to partner of the Beecher Community School District. The fully renovated space is being provided by the District, and mirrors the technology and active learning resources found on the UM-Flint campus.
