1765. Walk along the Yard side of Har-
vard Hall until you reach matching side-
by-side buildings,
Hollis
and
Stoughton
halls.
Hollis dates to 1763 (Stoughton
“only” to 1805) and has been home to
many students who went on to great
fame, among them Ralph Waldo Emer-
son, Henry David Thoreau, and Charles
Bulfinch. Almost hidden across the tiny
lawn between these two buildings is
Holden Chapel,
a Georgian-style gem
completed in 1744. It has been an
anatomy lab, a classroom building, and,
of course, a chapel, and it is now home to
the Harvard Glee Club.
Cross the Yard to the building opposite Johnston
Gate. This is:
5
University Hall
Designed by Charles Bulfinch and con-
structed of granite quarried in suburban
Chelmsford, the 1813 structure is the
college's main administration building. In
1969, students protesting the Vietnam
War occupied it.
