Cassat and Memorial Halls Make Star Tribune Headlines
Carleton’s two new residence halls, Cassat and Memorial Halls, made headlines in the Thursday, Oct. 8 edition of the Star Tribune, gracing the front of the metro section. Jenna Ross, the higher education reporter for the paper, writes “It’s not that Carleton’s new dorms aren’t classy or expensive. The beautiful buildings came with a $27.5 million price tag. But the money went into comfy study spaces, rooftop solar panels and wide, bright halls lit by natural light.” Matthew Pieh ’10 (Minnetonka, Minn.) is one of the students quoted in the story. “Students care. That’s something I’ve really seen grow over my three and a half years here,” he says. He loves his new digs.
