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.
