NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Tulane University's former School of Social Work building will be transformed into a new student center. The New Orleans Advocate reports (http://bit.ly/1P98wnl) the University received a $5 million donation from 1985 graduate David Mussafer and his wife, Marion to pay for the project.
The 16,000-square-foot building is being renovated and soon will host the Center for Student Success with a 7,400-square-foot extension, 72 private offices, a multipurpose room and a research room.
The two-building center, to be renamed Mussafer Hall, will house the Academic Advising Center, Career Services and the Success Center.
Mussafer received a bachelor's degree in management from Tulane's A.B. Freeman School of Business and an MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
