Fisk House Dedication

The dedication of the new home of BU’s Fisk House, which provides low-cost housing to BU women graduate students in a wide range of programs, from fine arts to environmental health to international affairs, and is managed by the BU Women’s Guild, was held November 5, and nearly four dozen guests were on hand to celebrate. The residence was opened on Comm Ave in 1933 and has since supported hundreds of women grad students; the 193 Bay State Road building now housing Fisk House was renovated last summer.
