Rendering of Ruffner's DomeAt a meeting for faculty, staff and students on April 25, 2001, the day after the Great Fire, President Cormier stated, "And let me tell you again, Longwood remains strong and we will see the Ruffners and Grainger rise from the ashes and assume new life. This I promise you."

We will take another step toward fulfilling this promise on Thursday, December 12, with the official groundbreaking for our beloved Ruffners. You are cordially invited to attend the ceremony, which will begin at 2:00 p.m. in the Bicentennial Park across the street from the construction site. Refreshments will be served in the Gallery of Lancaster Hall.

This will be a very significant day in the life of Longwood, the beginning of the rebuilding of the University's signature building. We hope very much that you will be able to join us.

[In case of inclement weather, the program will be held in the Gallery of Lancaster Hall.]

The Ruffner ground breaking will be held at the Bicentennial Park directly across High Street from the Ruffners Site.
