Home to the Chocolate Bar, the atrium is a central meeting place for BC students, faculty, and staff. In her remarks, Caren Demoulas said the foundation chose the spot in honor of Telemachus and Irene.
鈥淣one of this would be possible without my parents, Mike and Irene, who were so proud to be connected with 成人快播 College,鈥� said Demoulas. 鈥淪even of us attended BC. The Demoulas Commons carries on my parents鈥� love and gratitude, particularly because it鈥檚 in a place used by so many.
鈥淚t鈥檚 fitting that it鈥檚 also a spot where people can grab a bite to eat and gather for conversation,鈥� added Demoulas. 鈥淢y parents were all about fostering community.鈥�
University President William P. Leahy, S.J., thanked the Demoulas family for supporting 成人快播 College鈥檚 commitment to the liberal arts and humanities through this meaningful space in BC鈥檚 main humanities building.
Robert L. and Judith T. Winston Provost and Dean of Faculties David Quigley also offered remarks and thanked the Demoulas family for their generous support. Morrissey College of Arts and Sciences Dean Gregory Kalscheur, S.J., blessed the newly dedicated Demoulas Commons.
