3 WINTER 2026 FACING PAGE TOP: PETER MURPHY; BOTTOM: KELLY DEPSEE; THIS PAGE ELIZABETH KAMINSKY, ANTHONY DePRIMO PAINTING THE HALLS RED It was such a wonderful idea to document the murals ("These hallowed halls," fall 2025) because everyone remembers them. Even if you didn't live in T/W, you visited friends there. After I read the article, I immediately went to the linked website and then texted my TCNJ friends. This was a quick way to connect back with them, because we often wondered if the murals were still there. ANGELA WINTERROWD '02 Wolfe 5, 1980–82. We had the Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon design going down our whole wing. AMY ROTH '82 "These hallowed halls" brought back a lot of memories of the one I painted on Ely, second floor (right across from the pay phone). I worked on it for weeks. I am not an artist, but was so proud of the result. MARJ PETERSON MOTTOLA '79 I was a community advisor in Wolfe Hall from 1983–84. The towers had recently been painted and were seriously lacking in murals. One of the events I planned as a CA was a towers-wide mural painting contest. I had forgotten about that until I read the article; thanks for reviving that memory. MICHAEL T. PEYTON '86 The mural article brought back great memories of my attempt as a freshman in 1978. The art isn't good but being able to express myself meant the world to me. So glad to know that the tradition continues. ELIZABETH KAMINSKY '82 " WHAT A DELIGHT TO STUMBLE UPON A PHOTO IN @TCNJMAGAZINE OF A MURAL I HELPED PAINT AS AN UNDERGRAD AT TCNJ #REMEMBERTHEMAGIC. " @DEREKWWAN
