The Building Name Review Committee is considering a proposal from our campus community to un-name Barrows Hall. The proposal is posted on the Building Name Review Committee’s website.
This committee process helps determine if the current name of a building should be changed. Identifying a permanent new name for any building approved for un-naming is a separate process that requires additional consultation with our campus community at a later stage.
