New Dining Hall Opens

Leverett House is fifth renovation in two years

“It seemed really unsanitary before,” Kacker said. “People would just scoop the cereal out with their hands sometimes. It was pretty disgusting.”

Leverett diners no longer need to remove their utensils from their trays at the end of a meal, which is one of Milligan’s favorite aspects of the new dining hall.

“It’s designed for lazy people like me,” he said.

Enthusiasm for the new dining hall is nearly unanimous, with even the dining hall workers excited at the change.

“They even let us choose our uniforms,” Duggan says.

The renovations began the day after Commencement, after a year and a half of HUDS planning .

“You can’t even believe how fast how fast this stuff can happen,” McNitt said. “The walls were literally being torn down. The place is just demolished.”

Multiple types of construction occured simultaneously on the site--a consequence of the three-month deadline.
