After nearly eight months of construction, Sharpless Hall, the campus' home for psychology and biology, was reopened. The renovations of Sharpless are a part of the College's Lives That Speak campaign, a $225 million affirmation of Haverford's academic excellence and historical commitment to the value of an ethical life.
