The Rock
Near the center of the Northwestern College campus is a large, colorfully painted rock. Known on campus simply as "The Rock," it serves as a student billboard to announce birthdays, special events, engagements, etc. Students note that it takes at least three cans of spray paint to cover The Rock, and campus etiquette suggests a 24-hour waiting period between paintings.

Famous quotes containing the word rock:
“So there he is at last. Man on the moon. The poor magnificent bungler! He can’t even get to the office without undergoing the agonies of the damned, but give him a little metal, a few chemicals, some wire and twenty or thirty billion dollars and, vroom! there he is, up on a rock a quarter of a million miles up in the sky.”
—Russell Baker (b. 1925)
“Don’t say, don’t say there is no water
to solace the dryness at our hearts.
I have seen
the fountain springing out of the rock wall
and you drinking there.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
