Then and Now: The Sunken Lounge Now

It was a long and remarkably snowy winter, and the fireplace in the DC served as a welcome respite from the cold. Students often study, eat dinner, or enjoy special events in front of its warming glow whenever it is lit.

Then and Now: The Sunken Lounge

Then and Now: The Sunken Lounge

Part of the Dining Center since its 1969 opening, the fireplace in the Sunken Lounge has long served as a meeting place and study space for students looking to warm up, as these organic chemistry students circa 1990 show.

Come back tomorrow to see the Sunken Lounge “Now”.

Bret Mulligan – Office Hour

“I really like, in all my classes, to bring in cultural elements to remind my students that these were real people,” says Associate Professor of Classics Bret Mulligan, who teaches ancient Greek and Latin language classes as well as courses on literature, mythology, and history.

Read Office Hour in the Spring/Summer 2014 issue of Haverford Magazine.

Mulligan has an office crammed with classical literature, books, and a sizable collection of reproductions of artifacts to help students understand the lives of those who lived in the ancient world. Photo: Thom Carroll Photography
