===Memorial Lobby (Lobby 10)=== A two-story atrium space at the half-way point of the corridor, informally known as '''Lobby 10''', is part of the '''MacLaurin Buildings''' in Building 10, underneath the '''Great Dome'''. In this space, it is quite common to find several booths or tables advertising upcoming events, or students engaged in other public activities and demonstrations, such as [[juggling]] or dancing. Often, there are fund-raising activities, such as selling [[used books]], tickets for shows or concerts, artworks made in the MIT GlassLab or Student Art Association, or [[Chinese bakery products|Chinese pastries]] and other [[snack]]s. On November 18, 2013 a formal dedication ceremony was held to rename the space '''Memorial Lobby'''. The [[travertine]] walls bear the engraved names of [[MIT alumni]] who died in each of several wars, and these inscriptions have been [[gilding|re-gilded]] to make them more readable.<ref name=Chandler>{{cite news|last=Chandler|first=David L.|title=MIT's Lobby 10 to be renamed in honor of fallen veterans|url=http://newsoffice.mit.edu/2013/mit-memorial-lobby-1108|access-date=2014-05-17|newspaper=MIT News|date=November 8, 2013}}</ref>
