The ANNe T. and Robert M. Bass Center

In 1988, Stanford University purchased a property at the intersection of Connecticut Avenue and Woodley Road in Northwest Washington. With funds generously provided by Anne T. (MLA ’07) and Robert M. Bass (MBA ’74), the venue would become the Bass Center. The main building houses students and has several program spaces, as well as apartments for Stanford faculty in residence, including:

• The Bing Tutorial Room is an intimate seminar room for small classes and meetings, named to recognize gifts made by Helen and Peter S. Bing, �56.  Photo
