The 142,000-square-foot facility will provide students interested in hospital- ity management and culinary sciences with hands-on learning experiences in a teaching hotel (The Laurel) and a teaching restaurant (1856), as well as a range of classrooms and demonstration and food production laboratories. With Alabama’s only professionally accredited hospitality program and the Rane Center on the horizon, Auburn is expected to draw students currently in top culinary programs in high schools in Alabama and across the nation. Officials in had aspirations more than a decade ago to create a learning environ- ment that would not only elevate Au- burn’s hospitality management program to unprecedented levels, but produce highly qualified culinary and hospitality employees to boost Alabama’s tourism industry and the state’s prominent and growing food legacy. It was former Dean June Henton who tasked Martin O’Neill, head of the col- lege’s Department of Nutrition, Dietetics and Hospitality Management, and Hans van der Reijden, managing director of recognized programs and facilities and benchmark the center’s development. The pair visited the best of the best from Singapore to Switzerland and all of Europe, and developed a plan to create an academic resource for Auburn students interested in culinary-focused careers. “It’s great to see the culmination of almost 15 years of dreaming and conceptualizing finally take shape,” said O’Neill. “Auburn is primed to make a real difference in the field of hospitality edu- cation, and I am certain the Rane Center will become an exemplar the world over when it comes to graduating student leaders of unparalleled quality.” Ground for the center was officially broken under Susan Hubbard’s first year as dean of the College of Human Sciences. The veteran administrator, who has been involved in the facility’s planning from the beginning, celebrates all it will mean for future students. “The center’s innovative teaching environment will allow our students to develop the skills necessary to plan, market, manage, and evaluate a commercial hospitality operation,” she said. “Additionally, our faculty will collaborate with esteemed colleagues in the industry, which will further enrich the exceptional education we provide at Auburn.” When plans for the center were finalized, Frank Stitt, owner and exec- utive chef of Highlands Bar and Grill in Birmingham and the 2018 James Beard Award winner for Outstanding Restau- rant, called it “one of the most inter- esting and exciting culinary education centers in America, if not the world.” The project received strong support from James W. “Jimmy” Rane and the Rane family, who made a $12 million commitment to the building’s construc- tion. Rane is a 1968 Auburn alumnus, longtime member of the Board of Trust- ees and chairman, president, and chief executive officer of Great Southern Wood Preserving, based in Abbeville, Alabama. Trustees agreed to name the facility in honor of Mr. Rane’s parents, Tony and Libba. Gifts to the college, university gen- eral funds, and revenue from the hotel, restaurant, a food hall, and leased living units will cover the $110 million project budget. The Rane Center will be the first revenue-generating academic building at Auburn. Located at the intersection of cam- pus and community, the Rane Center will be a gathering place for all to use and enjoy. Construction is expected to be complete in spring 2022.
