What was the Hallowell House Dedication?

December 13, 2007

Some students may have noticed an event posted on the campus calendar by the Development Office yesterday entitled “Hallowell House Dedication”. Since no description was provided, the Gazette decided to investigate.

Millie Dappollone in the Events Planning offices explained that the dedication was for the home of Dean Jim Larimore. “It’s on the calendar so that all know that this house will now be known as the ‘Hallowell House’.” Guests were invited to the event with students catering hors d’oeuvres.
