| − | '''McVickar Hall''' is a building on [[113th Street]] between [[Broadway]] and [[Riverside Drive]]. The building is named for [[James McVickar]], a member of Columbia's faculty in the mid-19th century. The building served as the home of the [[School of Social Work]] until August [[2004]] when the school's new building on 122nd and Broadway opened.

| − | After SSW's departure from the building, Columbia proposed converting McVickar into a full-fledged infirmary for the University, bringing [[Health Services]] and [[CPS]] under one roof and adding a radiology suite and pharmacy. However, intense protests from the neighborhood, citing potential noise pollution and the threat of 'psychic emergencies', lead to a change of plans. McVickar is now being renovated to serve as the new home for [[UDAR]].
