Scully Hall
Scully Hall, our new dining center, has been completed and is in operation. The new building, named for Marlynn and Bill Scully '57 who provided the single largest gift in the School's history, is 40% larger than the previous facility. A new, larger dining room and a small group dining room have been constructed and the existing kitchen has been renovated.
The building reflects the campus architecture with a steeply pitched slate roof, brick walls and extensive woodwork in the interior. The dining room features dramatic curved trusses, a wood floor and clerestory windows.
Key features of the dining hall include:
- A 6,000 square foot dining room to comfortably seat 400 hundred diners at round tables
- 860 square foot small group dining room to comfortably sit 50 diners
- An expanded serving area and improved kitchen layout
- A foyer with two large coat rooms
- New fully handicap accessible lavatories
- Air conditioning
A certified "green" building
The building is designed with a geothermal heating and cooling source, multi-level lighting controls, radiant heating system and an energy management system. The construction process has been done with an emphasis on conserving energy and recycling waste material. The project qualifies for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). LEED is the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings.
The Barn
During the construction of Scully Hall, meals were served in a new building known as "The Barn". The Barn is situated along the back road of campus and was built by an Amish crew in August 2008. This building is now the maintenance garage and home to the Physical Plant Office.
Completing the strategic vision
With the completion of the new dining hall and maintenance barn, all of the projects in the 2000 master plan have been achieved.
