Making Progress

Thursday, June 11, 2020
With in-person classes set to resume in August according to the most recent plans announced, crews work to complete a new 150-bed first-year dormitory on the DePauw University campus. The new dorm near the southwest corner of Locust and Olive streets is only the first phase of a project that has also included the razing of Hogate Hall to make way for another new dorm. Humbert Hall and Bishop Roberts Hall will see the same fate. After they are taken down and replaced, Longden Hall will meet its demise. The transformation of the south end of campus is set to take another four years.

  • Out with the old, in with the new. Time marches on.

  • I remember when Hogate Hall was built. It replaced the old Quonset Huts for returning World War 2 vets and their wives and families.
