Dewey Hall
Dewey Hall was erected in 1930, and with its museum wing it was the largest academic building on the original campus. Dewey Hall served as the River Campus biology and geology building until 1972 when the programs moved to the new science technology building, Hutchison Hall.
The building was named for the Rev. Doctor Chester Dewey, a nationally known scientist who helped found the University and taught as a professor at Rochester for many years. Currently the main occupants of Dewey Hall are the Simon School, the Warner School, and the University Counseling Center.
Carol G. Simon Hall houses the Simon School's administration, faculty, and Ph.D. students. It is linked to Schlegel and Gleason Halls by the Florescue von Manstein Plaza. The building is named for Carol G. Simon, wife of William E. Simon, the chief benefactor of the University's Graduate School of Business Administration. It contains more than 75 offices, several conference rooms, and a variety of lounge spaces for faculty and staff.
