The University community gathered with Connell family members to celebrate the dedication of the Margot Connell Recreation Center, a new state-of-the-sport, 244,000-square-foot facility on St. Thomas More Road. The center is named for Margot Connell—Trustee Associate, honorary degree recipient, wife of the late William “Bill” F. Connell ’59, mother of six Boston College graduates, and grandmother of three BC graduates and three undergraduates—whose $50 million leadership gift made the center a reality.
