| C. H. BARRY: A FOUNDING AITCHISONIAN |
A requiem for Mr C.H. Barry, former Principal Aitchison College, Lahore.
|
| Charles Harold Barry, the fifth Principal of Aitchison College, Lahore, passed away on 20 April 1992, at Macclesfield, UK. To generations of post-Independence Aitchisonians, the name of Mr. Barry has been associated primarily with the imposing double-storeyed red brick building known as Barry Block which today houses the Senior School. The building was completed in 1941, during Mr. Barry’s tenure as Principal. In its functional modernity – a daring departure in its day from the traditional florid style of architecture visible in the older buildings of the College – Barry Block not only commemorates a past principal but symbolises the character and contribution of one of the most dynamic heads of that remarkable institution.
