Page 28 text:

OLD WALLS AND TOWERS PINNACLES, steeples and towers were the crowning features of all the earliest buildings on the campus, erected before the present century. Though the tops of some of these have been removed because the sup- porting walls were literally crumbling into dust, as U Hall and Nebraska Hall, the towers that still remain on the older part of the campus are picturesque and eloquent symbols of the early days. They speak to us o+ the aspirations of the founders of the University and of the faith of the pioneer professors. To many oF the old grads of Nebraska, these towers mean the spirit of the Univer- sity as they knew it. The traditions of the school have grown like the ivy, covering old walls with living symbols of the alma mater. These old buildings, along with old land- marks and old trees on the campus should be revered, preserved and cared for before all are gone, in years to come, the student readers of this book will cherish the images of these old walls and towers as a quaint souvenir of their student days.
