Quote : | "New Bell For NC State University
North Carolina State University graduates are leaving something behind this year.
The Class of 2010 reoprtedly raised more than $50,00 to buy a bell for the tower that has become the school's symbol. The tower has never had bells but uses an audio system to mimic the sound. It was planned 90 years ago with bells, but there wasn't enough money for them and fundraising efforts have fallen short. The Class of 2010's bell will be the second-largest in the proposed set and will stay in the school library until at least six can be installed. " |

They raised the money for it, why are you bitching. If you want parking spots then go raise some money for them. If not quit your bitching.5/23/2010 1:29:51 PM |

50K can also purchase about 20 of the smaller bells. They are useless until we get all of them up there. We need the first six to correctly ring the Westminster chimes. We don't want unused material up in the tower. That's why we bought the most expensive ones first. 5/23/2010 2:46:22 PM |
