Gwinnett Technical College in Lawrencev-
ille, Georgia, a project that will ultimately
qualify for LEED-Silver certification. This
college is one of a number of academic in-
stitutions which has been served by RWH.
Wittschiebe credits a longstanding, collab-
orative relationship with the visionary Board
of Regents that oversee the state’s university
system as one of the most important rela-
tionships of her firm. She says the relation-
ship has been fostered by her firm’s ability
to work in a team approach with the Board
of Regents, a process that requires extensive
input and recommendations from diverse
teams charged with oversight, and adhering
to budgetary restraints without forsaking
on the quality or functionality desired for
the completed project. “Everyone one has
certain expectations and requirements, but
that is part of what makes it so enjoyable, to
work with so many people in process ... but
thankfully, they will also let you stretch on
design as long as you can do it on budget,”
