OU Clocktower tradition

There is a lot of tradition at The University of Oklahoma and the clock tower is a part of it! The clock tower is about one hundred and ten feet tall. In the pictures below, you are able to tell that it is four-faced. One important thing about the tower’s height is that due to it being so tall, you are able to see if from other parts of campus! Since it is visible from places all over campus, it brings a lot of attention and visitors to that area. At the bottom of the tower, it is surrounded by nearby gardening and sculptures. During the weekend of Martin Luther King Day, I learned that the clock tower is where people will meet up and celebrate MLK there! I think that it is very cool and important that our university can use their buildings to allow people to meet and celebrate important people! This is a positive way that the tower has impacted our campus and community!
