Located on the east side of campus, the Marx Center is named in honor of Lawrence Marx Jr., a successful businessman from Purchase, New York, who became interested in the College when his daughter, Lynn Marx Silverman ’64, enrolled at Hood in 1960.
Today, the Marx Center serves as the Honors House—with residential rooms designated for students in the Honors Program—as well as a meeting space. The facility includes Driscoll Commons, a classroom, office and three apartments.
