What this episode covers

Scan a list of architecture terms and you will find delicious words like balustrade and bousillage, jack arch and jettied story. There’s pergola, saltbox, and poteaux-en-terre. But soul? Couldn’t find it among the technical vocabulary. And yet it was the Michigan Union’s very “soul” that was at stake when the administration decided to renovate, rehabilitate and make over the 100-year-old building, which has been in continuous use as a student union since opening its doors in 1919. Listen in, as we get back inside the building after 18 months. Read the complete story, "This is how you 'capture space'" at michigantoday.umich.edu.
