Built on the former site of the President's House, Gilbert-Addoms ("GA") was built as a dormitory to house 200 women - it also featured sun decks and a cafeteria to seat 350. It was named for Katherine Gilbert, a philosophy professor at Duke from 1930-1952, and Ruth Addoms, a botany professor from 1930-1951.
