Farewell to Kiewit

 

"Farewell to Kiewit" ceremony

A "Farewell to Kiewit" ceremony was held. The ceremony marked a milestone transition: the widespread use of computing at Dartmouth in the first era to the move of the Kiewit functions to the new Berry Library in the next era. The demolition of the old Kiewit building helped make room for Carson Hall.

Demolition of Kiewit Computation Center

The demolition of the Kiewit Computation Center began with the removal of asbetos and lead paint. The demolition was expected to be done by Thanksgiving. Kiewit was razed to make room for Carson Hall.

In September, the new Berry Library opened. It is a $55.5-million, 121,000-square-foot addition to Baker Library. The Library was funded in part by the late John W. Berry '44, the principal donor with $27.5 million; his son, George Berry '66; the Loren M. Berry Foundation, established by John Berry's father; and George F. Baker III, whose great-grandfather funded the construction of Baker Library in 1926. See Dartmouth College Library.

Institute for Security Technologies Studies Founded

The Institute for Security Technology Studies (ISTS) at Dartmouth College was founded. It was dedicated to pursuing research and education for cyber security and trust.

ISTS strengthens homeland security through interdisciplinary research, education, and outreach programs that focus on technology critical for cyber security and trust. ISTS nurtures leaders and scholars, educates students and the community, and collaborates with its partners to deploy technology to benefit our community and to better understand technology's impact on our security. ISTS research improves our ability to design secure computer systems and protect them from attacks, enables people and organizations to form secure trust relationships across networked computing devices, and addresses social, economic, and policy issues that arise in the development and deployment of such technology.
