The contest to name the new dorm has closed, and Student Council received 60 suggested names. An anonymous donor gave sufficient money for naming rights, but proposed the contest. A Student Council committee has selected five finalist names, and will submit them to President Al Bloom, who will send them to the donor. According to Student Council Co-President Jyoti Gupta ’05, the whole process may be done by the end of the semester. The finalist names have not been disclosed.
