The University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) Admissions Office plans to take this LEGO block replica model of the new "Commons" building on the road to display at college fairs across the country. 

This state-of-the-art student center features the UMBC Bookstore, a two-story "Cabaret" room equipped to act both as a lounge and venue for live performances, a "Skylight" restaurant/reception area, a recreation room complete with games and dance floor, and  several general meeting spaces.

"Students can either check out a wireless laptop from our information desk and work anywhere in the building or bring their own and plug into one of the thousands of high-speed dataports located throughout The Commons," says Commons Director, Joe Reiger.
