Show A photograph of the O.C. Tanner plaza and fountain. The fountain is spouting water forth from propulsion jets which are situated in the center of square block of cement which sets in the center of its recirculation pool. Trees and other vegetation adorn both view and the area around the fountain. And visible at very left are the back ends of parked cars. |
Further Information |
For more information on donations, especially for the Student Union Center Plaza, see the plagues mounted on either side of the cement pillars of the east stairwell leading to Converse Hall. NOTES: The photograph is in poor condition with severe signs of warping being its most glaring impairment. Other abnormalities include the following: three sets of staples holes along the bottom border; equal set of staple holes along the top border; one set of staple holes along the left and right border; a dangling piece ripped off on the lower right hand corner; numerous small, quarter moon shaped creases (most likely from handling), and the severe warping which appears to be moisture based. On the back is written, "Fountain" with a red felt tip pen. The fountain was funded and built by the contributions of Obert and Grace Tanner, and the plaza by various contributors in 1973. The contributions of the Tanner family reach far beyond the means of one man. It was very much a family affa |
