A gift of $17.5 million from alumnus and trustee Robert
W. Gore, alumna Sarah I. Gore and Genevieve W. Gore makes possible
the first addition to the tree-lined heart of the campus since
H. Rodney Sharp Laboratory was built in 1961-62...Gore Hall.
The Gores join the ranks of the University's most generous benefactors
-- H. Rodney Sharp, H. Fletcher Brown and P.S. du Pont -- whose
generosity is so much in evidence on this beautiful Mall.
The architect, Allan Greenberg, is noted for his love of and expertise
in classical architecture -- the style of the other buildings on the
University Mall.
Gore Hall, to be completed by February 1998, will feature a range of
classroom styles, with the capacity for the latest technology for
teaching incorporated into its design. |
