Construction on the new fountain in front of Liberty University's Arthur S. DeMoss Learning Center, the main academic building on campus, is nearing completion as workers put water in it for the first time this week.

The fountain was installed in honor of those donors who supported the expansion of DeMoss to a four-story building, completed in 2000, according to Director of Planning and Construction Charles Spence. He said the final stage of construction calls for adding the donors' names to the fountain area.

The fountain, standing 19 feet tall and made of hand-carved marble from Italy, features three columns with water cascadingfrom the tops of each. A cast-bronze eagle, Liberty's mascot, perches atop the tallest column.

I guess I was right about the water coming out of the pillars. Hmm, I'll have to see how that works out. In my mind, that doesn't really look good.

I noticed the 3 pillars today...and wondered what was going atop the other two.

I walked by the fountain today and actually put my fingers in the water. It really felt good.

I guess I should have bumped this thread instead of the other. We need pictures of the fountain with water in it.

I also said this in the other thread. There's like no difference.

It's a cool looking eagle, but the color is pretty fugly.
