In Short: Nassau Hall Restoration Work; Emeritus Faculty

NASSAU HALL will be surrounded by scaffolding and fencing this summer during work to replace the slate roof, restore the cupola, resurface the cupola’s four clocks, and improve safety systems. The project is expected to continue through March. During the restoration, the bronze tigers next to the front steps will be boxed for protection.
