Room Dedication Program
The Room Dedication Program has recently been implemented at The Thayer Hotel. Each guest room is dedicated to a distinguished graduate of West Point. Each room's décor reflects the accomplishments of an individual who has made significant contributions to the nation and the world. Only the most accomplished and distinguished have a room at The Thayer Hotel named and decorated in their honor. All chosen honorees, selected by committee, are now part of the storied hotel's history. Their names and accomplishments are listed as part of a dedication display that has created a museum inside of a hotel. Some notable graduates of West Point who have a room dedicated to them include: General Martin Dempsey, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Brigadier General Rebecca Halstead, the first female USMA Graduate General Officer.

“In a room with a stuffed fox and a stale fern,”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
“It is difficult for me to imagine the same dedication to women’s rights on the part of the kind of man who lives in partnership with someone he likes and respects, and the kind of man who considers breast-augmentation surgery self-improvement.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“They had their fortunes to make, everything to gain and nothing to lose. They were schooled in and anxious for debates; forcible in argument; reckless and brilliant. For them it was but a short and natural step from swaying juries in courtroom battles over the ownership of land to swaying constituents in contests for office. For the lawyer, oratory was the escalator that could lift a political candidate to higher ground.”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
