Historical Note

Beaven Hall - This building is named after Thomas D. Beaven (class of 1870), who was the bishop of Springfield, MA at the time. As Holy Cross experienced problematic overcrowding in 1911, he urged the diocese to help raise funds to build a new residence hall with classrooms. The building was originally going to be named “Memorial of the Clergy of the Diocese of Springfield."
