The William H. and Elizabeth Gray Danforth University Center
The William H. and Elizabeth Gray Danforth University Center, located between Simon Hall and Mallinckrodt Student Center, will provide a welcoming space for all who participate in the life of the University—students, faculty, staff, alums, neighbors, parents and friends. It will be a crossroads for all of these constituencies as they make use of its courtyards, meeting rooms, lounges, and upscale and casual dining venues. Along with The Career Center, much-needed office space for student life organizations and student media will be housed in the Danforth University Center, scheduled to open in Fall 2008.

"Ibby would be very pleased by having her name attached to this wonderful Center," said Dr. William H. Danforth. "I have countless warm memories of our years together at Washington University. She would see the new Danforth University Center as a special place where students can gather with their friends and classmates for activities and talks, for learning and for growing."
