Pauli Murray College
Pauli Murray College[1] is a residential college for undergraduates of Yale College in New Haven, Connecticut.[2] It is scheduled to open in 2017.
Construction
In 2008, Yale University President Rick Levin announced that the college had the resources to educate more students and thus would expand its enrollment by opening two new residential colleges for a total of fourteen.[3] In April 2016, the university announced that the colleges would be named after Pauli Murray and Benjamin Franklin.[4]
Pauli Murray College will be the northern of the two new colleges,[5] referred to as "North College" in some earlier documents.[6]
Leadership
On July 6, 2016, the university announced that Tina Lu, Professor of East Asian Languages and Literature, would be the first head of Pauli Murray College.[1]
