This article discusses education facilities and business in 2007 and beyond. Schools and universities in 2007 are likely to continue to embrace the philosophy of sustainability as they design new facilities, remodel existing space and manage their campus operations. Education funds are subject to year-to-year fluctuations, so budgets are likely to remain tight in most jurisdictions. On the other hand, student enrollment in U.S. schools and universities will continue to rise in 2007 and throughout the next decade, the federal government projects. The growth is occurring rapidly in some areas, and not at all in other regions, but the education institutions with increasing numbers of students will have to find space to accommodate them.
