In recognition of the gift, the building’s forum will be named in honor of the donors, who have chosen to remain anonymous for the time being. The contribution follows the lead gift made by trustee Michael Gordon and a $5 million commitment from trustee Marieke Rothschild and Jeff Rothschild. The Center marks the largest academic building project in the College’s history. Designed by architect William Rawn Associates, Architects, Inc., the Center will house the College’s Departments of Theater and Dance and Music and the Cinema Studies Program.
