Edwards Campus marks 10 years with new buildings
Edwards Campus in Overland Park nears its tenth anniversary as two new buildings advance plans for growth. Regnier Hall will add 82,000 square feet with 18 classrooms, labs, offices and a 240 seat auditorium while a student union boosts campus life. Enrollment, now about 2,000, is expected to double in five years as KU expands programs from 25 to 40 and strengthens ties to Johnson County's workforce.
