The Lady of the Fountain was a gift of the class of 1902 and constructed shortly after graduation. It was the second class gift presented to OSU in school history and was located on Lowe Campus just west of the intersection of where Madison Street today crosses 9th Street. On January 21, 1929, the statue was found destroyed.
Kidder Hall was originally named “The Library”. After the new library opened in 1964, the old library building was renamed Kidder Hall after Ida Kidder, the college’s first professional librarian.
