Campaniling
This beloved campanile was built in 1898 and is home to the Stanton Memorial Carillon.  The carillon bells ring daily and tradition states that a student officially becomes an Iowa Stater when kissed under the campanile as the carillon tolls midnight.  The tradition is called "campaniling."
