NWOSU's 110 Celebration - Sept. 20, 2007

You will remember last week we mentioned NWOSU's 110 Celebration of the first classes held, 1897. The corner stone of the Old Science Hall was laid March 6, 1897, of the norhteast corner of Old Science Hall (Now the Fine Arts) building, by the Masons.

While we were in Alva, Oklahoma, doing demolition, we stopped up by Northwestern's university campus to see what was happening, September 20, 2007, 1:00 p.m. -- to get some snapshots, movie clips of their 110 year celebrations since the 1st day of class in 1897.

September 20, 2007 the Mason's joined in the 110 years celebration to rededicate the Fine Arts building and remove the 110 year old time capsule. BUT... They did not remove the old time capsule from the March 6, 1897 corner stone, because they found it to be solidly incassed in granite. It remains securely where it was placed 110 years ago.   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
