Years from now, I hope you will be telling your children and grandchildren about the first day of classes at Knight Hall and Bauer Hall on St. Patrick’s Day 2014!

It was a historic occasion with Chancellor Wrighton, Provost Thorp, and Executive Vice Chancellor Hank Webber in attendance to welcome everyone to Olin’s expanded home.

It was great to see the wide-eyed, happy reactions as students stepped inside the Atrium for the first time. Enjoy more first day photos on our Flickr page.

We’ve already received several photos for the Selfie Contest…we’ll announce winners every week for the next six weeks, so be sure to enter!

Find out how to book a room or cater an event on the new General Services section of CampusGroups. If you can’t find answers there, send questions to: 4Buildings@olin.wustl.edu.
