I understand that the new cafeteria will be where the Newcomb College Dean’s Residence now stands. Three floors of cafeteria and the top floor for the NCI and its Center for Research on Women and archives. The local historic preservation council denied the university’s request to demolish the building which exists in the Tulane University Historic District. Tulane is now bringing a request to over-ride that denial to the City Council of New Orleans. I believe that President Cowen gave assurances to alumnae that the House would remain as the home for NCI when the BOT voted to close the college.
