Join us as we celebrate the dedication of the Nancy and Ray Hansen Reading Commons with a ribbon-cutting ceremony including Ray Hansen (‘53) on November 2, from 3:30-4 p.m.

Brown Library renovated the east side of the Learning Commons into a community space for book browsing, reading, and special literary events. It is full of new books and periodicals, new shelving, comfortable seating and tables, good lighting, and equipped with digital presentation capabilities. This project was funded by a generous gift from Ray Hansen (’53) in memory of his beloved wife, Nancy (Waters ’53) and is named Nancy and Ray Hansen Reading Commons.
