Mussafer Hall, the new home to academic advising, career programming and success services at Newcomb-Tulane College, is dedicated on Friday, Sept. 28, before an enthusiastic crowd of Tulane supporters. For the first time, the most essential services for Tulane undergraduates are under one roof in the heart of the uptown campus.

The building visually connects the present and the past with 7,600 square feet of new space added to the 15,700-square-foot renovation of Tulane’s first dormitory (constructed in 1902 in the Dutch Renaissance style) which most recently housed the School of Social Work.
