GAINES TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — Office furniture maker Steelcase Inc. plans to donate its massive pyramid-shaped former research facility in western Michigan to a nonprofit foundation for use as an education hub for the study of “STEM” subjects: science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
Officials said the education hub would cater to students in preschool through graduate school, The Grand Rapids Press reported (http://bit.ly/MtdCkl ). Steelcase spokeswoman Laura VanSlyke said the company is excited to see the building take on a different life.
