On a trcc-lcss. sagebrush covered bench of old Like Bonneville ut the base of the towering Wasatch Mountains, a group of officials of the Utah Territory gathered together on a warm July day In 1889. to lay the cornerstone for the first building to be erected on the campus of Utah St3tc University and to dedicate a promising, if then remote, new institution of higher education. It was a dignified occasion on the harsh American frontier and a momentous one in the history of Utah education. The Old Main building, the traditional landmark of Utah State University. was built in three phases. After studying proposals of four architects, the Board of Trustees accepted a design (shown above) by C. L Thompson. which outlined a large building 270 by ICO feet- Lacking funds to build the entire structure, the Board authorired coastrucrion of the south wing. With the wing’s completion a year later, the University opened its doors for the first time and took its place among the pioneer colleges of the great American West. In 1893 the remainder of the Old Main building was constructed, except the Tower and the west portion. It was not until 1901 that funds were finally available to finish the structure. The present-day Old Main, considerably different from Thompson’s initial design, has been extensively remodeled through the years, hur remains as Utah State’s most familiar campus landmark. For tens of thousands of Aggies of .ill ages, the Tower of Old Main represents not only some of the best year of their lives, but inspiration of loved teachers, warmth of friendships knit at the time when friendships arc most enduring, the height of intellectual and spiritual life.
