The Blue Room has remained open to customers after one of its doors was shattered Sunday at 5 p.m. A temporary wooden wall has been constructed where the glass door used to stand.
Anthony Kanellopoulos ’16 was leaving the Blue Room at 5 p.m. Sunday when a cashier told him to use the side door to exit, he said. Kanellopoulos wanted to help the cashier by closing the glass doors all the way, but when he grabbed the door handle, “it just broke before I even pulled it,” he said.
“We do not anticipate any interruption of service and expect the Blue Room to continue operating on a normal schedule,” wrote Ann Hoffman, director of administration of Brown Dining Services, in an email to The Herald.
Jacques Larue, director of retail dining, has requested that Facilities Management replace the broken door, Hoffman wrote.
Blue Room Unit Manager Victor Chang ’14 and Assistant Unit Manager Krissia Rivera ’15 both declined to comment.
The Blue Room remains fully functional. “I had the exact same experience” as always, said Emma Pastore ’14.
