Hello Andrew,
In the fall of 2012 we opened a new language center at Valparaiso
University. You can take a tour of our facility here:
http://www.valpo.edu/language-resource-center/facilities-overview/tour/
(Hover to see photos and descriptions of each space.)
There's an overview of the language center here:

If you have questions about the space, feel free to contact me.
Best,
Carol
