β€œThe Rock,” a large boulder on Northwestern's south campus that students jockey to paint in the middle of the night, originated as a water fountain gifted by the class of 1902. Then the pipes froze over and burst, rendering it useless. It was painted over for the first time in 1938.

Painting the Rock: Northwestern University

Theme: Northwestern University

I graduated from Northwestern University in 1998, with a degree in Computer Science, though I spent most of my time there designing for the newspaper, The Daily Northwestern. Every few months since graduating, I open up the latest NU alumni magazine with an eye out for the names of folks I once knew. I'm thrilled to say that now I'm one of those names, thanks to this profile of me by Diana Babineau.
