A piece of ONU's past

You can have a Clark Hall brick
Posted by Fred Steiner on Tuesday, July 31, 2018

By Monty Siekerman
Clark Hall is gone, having been demolished and hauled away in trucks during the past month, but a limited number of bricks were saved and are available at $50 each.

Clark served as a residence hall for many years. Those with fond memories of the place can keep a brick as a memento.

Proceeds from the sale of the bricks will benefit the Northern Fund which supports campus improvements, academic programs, student life, faculty research and financial aid.

Bricks can be purchased via online pre-pay. They will be available for pick up at the activities tent at Homecoming.
