Ground Broken for the Grant R. Doering Center for Science and Research

On May 3rd four Bryn Athyn College students (freshman Geneva Echols, sophomore Dale Zecher, junior Shilah Rose, and senior Annika Fitzpatrick) ceremonially broke ground for the Grant R. Doering Center for Science and Research, which will be located next to the Swedenborg Library on the south end of campus.

Dr. Charles W. Lindsay (Dean of the College), Rev. Eric H. Carswell (President of the Academy of the New Church), and Dr. Gregory L. Baker (retired professor and head of the Mathematics and Science Division), each offered a few remarks at the ceremony. Dean Lindsay also presented a commemorative gift to Wren Doering, whose generous donation in memory of her late husband Grant R. Doering, transformed this long awaited building from theory into reality.

Construction is now underway, and the building is scheduled for completion by Fall 2009.
