Engineer's stone tells of 'terrible rumbling and many memos'
The engineer's stone that sits just west of the Duckering Building will be rededicated at 4 p.m. Friday, July 21, as part of the 2017 Nanook Rendezvous reunion. The stone was created in 1967. In 2013, as construction of the new engineering facility began, Professor Robert Perkins wrote a history of the monument and its humorous plaque. 鈥�
