Fact of the Day

Donald Hakin of the Art Department designed the 15-foot, 2,800-pound stainless steel sculpture in front of the Memorial Student Union's main entrance in 1972, which cost $7,000.

The sculpture, an abstract concept of an Indian petroglyph's base, was intended to be filled with rocks and boulders but this never came to pass.

Today the figure appears to be standing in a shallow concrete bathtub.
