Northwestern College (Minnesota) - The Rock

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:

    “each rock a word
    a creek-washed stone
    Granite: ingrained
    with torment of fire and weight”

    “Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,
    Smiles awake you when you rise.
    Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,
    And I will sing a lullaby:
    Rock them, rock them, lullaby.”
    —Thomas Dekker (1572?–1632?)
