On Wednesday, the university’s Board of Regents announced plans to provide a $26 million lead investment that will go toward a major renovation of the building facade and surrounding grounds. Construction of the Tower was completed in 1937. It originally served as the central library for the university., it wasn’t just the inside that served as a symbol of education. On the outside of the building, symbolic images were carved into the Tower’s limestone blocks.
