George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum
The George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum, located on the campus of Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, was designed by architect Robert A.M. Stern. The library was dedicated on April 25, 2013, and it serves as the official library and museum for the 43rd President of the United States, George W. Bush.
Robert A.M. Stern is a prominent American architect known for his work on various projects, including academic buildings, museums, and residential structures. His design reflects a traditional and monumental architectural style that combines elements of classicism with contemporary design features. The library, located on the campus of Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, was opened to the public in 2013.
Here are some features of the Stern design:
- Neo-Classical Style: Robert Stern’s design for the George W. Bush Library draws inspiration from classical architectural elements, particularly evident in the grandeur of its facade. The building features symmetrical lines, grand columns, and a sense of balance and proportion reminiscent of classical architecture.
- Materials: The exterior of the library is clad in Texas Cordova Cream limestone, which gives the building a timeless and elegant appearance. The use of this indigenous stone connects the library to its Texas roots while also conveying a sense of permanence and strength.
- Grand Entrance: The entrance to the library is marked by a grand portico supported by tall columns, evoking the imagery of ancient Greek and Roman temples. This creates a sense of importance and significance befitting a presidential library.
- Light-filled Interior: Inside the library, natural light floods the space through expansive windows and skylights, creating an inviting and uplifting atmosphere. The interior spaces are designed to be open and airy, with high ceilings and ample room for exhibits and displays.
- Landscape Design: Surrounding the library is a carefully landscaped campus that includes native Texas plantings, walking paths, and outdoor gathering spaces. The landscape design complements the architecture of the building and provides visitors with opportunities for reflection and relaxation.
We refer to him as American Vitruvius, given his influence on the architecture of so many educational settlements; reflecting classical elegance with contemporary functionality.

The link between a college education and a lasting marriage
Opening page of “The Prologue of the Wife of Bath’s Tale,” from the Ellesmere manuscript of Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, c. 1400.
Researchers at the National Center for Health Statistics estimate that 78% of college-educated women who married for the first time between 2006 and 2010 could expect their marriages to last at least 20 years. But among women who have a high school education or less, the share is only 40%.

Inside Gasson Tower
Boston College Consolidated Financial Statement: $6.509B
Boston College is a private Jesuit research university in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts. Gasson Hall is a symbol of Boston College, representing the university’s commitment to academic excellence, spiritual values, and the pursuit of knowledge. It The hall continues to serve as an important part of the Boston College campus, housing administrative offices, classrooms, and the university’s Honors Program.
In “The Social Network,” Gasson Hall was used as a filming location for several scenes that take place at Harvard University, which is where Mark Zuckerberg attended college before he created Facebook. Specifically, Gasson Hall was used as a stand-in for Harvard’s Memorial Hall, which is a large Gothic Revival building that houses a dining hall and a chapel.
The scene in “The Social Network” that was filmed in Gasson Hall shows Mark Zuckerberg (played by Jesse Eisenberg) and Eduardo Saverin (played by Andrew Garfield) attending a disciplinary hearing in front of the Harvard administration. The hearing takes place in a large ornate room with stained glass windows and a high vaulted ceiling, which is actually the Reading Room on the third floor of Gasson Hall. The filmmakers made some minor changes to the room, such as adding a portrait of John Harvard and replacing some of the furniture, but overall, the space is very recognizable as Gasson Hall.
