Last week’s MWT featured a quick tour of my alma mater, Hardin-Simmons University. Today I am featuring one of the newer landmarks on Campus. Recently, the Alumni Wall was built around Centinnal Plazza commenerating all of the graduates of HSU. The name of every alumni from the very first class through the most recent graduates appears on the wall. It is really a neat feature. I was able to get a picture and rubbing of my name as well as my dad and uncle’s names.



For the next several weeks I will be featuring scenes from the part of the world where I grew up.
That sounds like a big, big project, making sure every graduate’s nae is on the wall. Very cool idea!

EG & Babooshka: I’m sure it was a tough project fortunately there are databases with the information. After graduation there is a reception at the wall and new alum get pictures taken by their names.
EWOK: I have several weeks of stuff from HSU and Abilene.

I love this wall and the fact that you could find so many family member’s names on it. It was a lovely gift for Mrs. Leland to give to your alma mater.

Thank you for the tour! That is neat when several family members have the same alma mater. My Niece graduated from the same college as her uncle and grandfather. Quite sentimental 🙂
