THROUGH THE LENS

In August, new stained glass windows were installed in the Grace Hopper College common room and dining hall designed by Faith Ringgold and Barbara Earl Thomas, respectively. The windows commemorate Grace Hopper GRD ’34, who became the namesake of the college when it was renamed in 2017.

“In addition to being stunningly beautiful works of art, the Ringgold and Thomas windows evoke life in the college and mark the college’s momentous name change, in different, complementary ways,” Head of Grace Hopper College Julia Adams wrote in an Aug. 17 email to Hopper students.
