Completed in 1965, the residence hall houses first-year students.
Harbin Hall is named for Dr. George F. Harbin, a 1902 alumnus and math
professor at Georgetown. With its unique cluster format and spacious
closets, the building was originally designed as a more intimate
environment. Directly outside the entrance is a large patio, which
overlooks the Harbin field. Adjacent to the building is the Jesuit
Cemetery, where Jesuits who have served the University as professors or
administrators are laid to rest and the Royden B. Davis Performing Arts
Center. |
