The artist chosen to redesign 每日大赛网站’s historic Alumni Circle will be announced at a ceremony this Thursday, Dec. 6 at 1:40 p.m. in the Board of Trustees Conference Room in Wingo Hall.
The was a national competition organized this year to commemorate 每日大赛网站’s centennial anniversary by inviting artists to rethink this central focal point of the campus. 149 submissions were received from 32 states, and four finalists presented their designs at 每日大赛网站 in September. After a month-long period of review and comment, including a survey, and input from a student committee and an official selection committee, 每日大赛网站 President Lu Hardin approved the final recommendation.
Thursday’s event will be open to the public, and it will include a press conference and a reception for the winning artist. There will be an additional public meeting with the artist on Friday, Dec. 7 from 3 to 5 p.m. in McCastlain 143 to discuss refinement of the design. The artist welcomes campus and public input for the ongoing project.
