The Building Name Review Committee is considering two proposals from our campus community to un-name buildings, one each for LeConte Hall and Kroeber Hall. Proposals have been posted on the Building Name Review Committee’s website.
This committee process helps determine if the current name of a building should be changed. Identifying a permanent new name for any building approved for un-naming is a separate process that requires additional consultation with our campus community at a later stage.
The committee received notification that a proposal to un-name Barrows Hall will be submitted in the near future. This proposal will be shared for community input once received.
At this time, the Building Name Review Committee solicits and welcomes feedback on proposals for LeConte and Kroeber Halls. The initial comment period for LeConte and Kroeber Halls will remain open for 2-5 weeks depending on the volume of responses. Responders may indicate that their comments remain private; if not so indicated, the committee will curate and post comments on its website.
Sincerely,
Paul Fine
