… though it’s old news, really; it was announced on the college website last year.  (We absent-minded alumni are sometimes way out of touch.)  The college is evidently going to tear down the Marshall and Russell Hall dormitories so it can erect a new theater building.  And there is a fan page, of sorts, for people who fondly remember the soon-to-be-razed dorms.

There have been so many major construction projects at Mary Wash since I graduated nearly 30 years ago.  I’ll go ahead here and echo the sentiments of one of my alums on Facebook — the next time I see campus, I’m going to feel like I hardly recognize it.
