PSUstock: Farmers High School pillar in back of the HUB

When first founded, Penn State was known as the Farmers' High School of Pennsylvania. One of the pillars in back of the HUB on the University Park campus of Penn State shows the institution's early beginnings. The pillars, by renowned artist William Culbertson created this promenade along the HUB lawn that explores 150 years of campus life in honor of Penn State’s Sesquicentennial. The five pillars detail different periods in the University’s history and depict various aspects of student life, activities, athletics, and cultural events.
