Today is the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Krasnow addition. I’m extremely pleased with all the distinguished visitors who will be celebrating with us and I hope to have some pictures of the event in the not too distant future. I’d also like to take this opportunity to thank two individuals:
Harold Morowitz was the first director of the Krasnow Institute for Advanced Study from 1990 until 1998. He is one of this country’s most distinguished biochemists and it is certainly his vision which is largely being realized today with the expansion project. We’re all very grateful to him for his service and dedication.
William Nitze has been instrumental in supporting this project from it’s earliest days, when he provided crucial planning dollars to allow us to begin to conceptualize the new space. He has also served on the Krasnow Board of Trustees and subsequent to the merger with Mason, on the Krasnow Advisory Board. We’re extremely grateful to Bill for making today possible also.
