Music To Our Ears


The UNK Bell Tower is arguably the most iconic feature of the UNK campus. With 24 bells all working in harmony, the tower can be heard in all its glory on the hour, every hour. I myself fall among the ranks of the many Lopers who claim this campus staple as their favorite piece of UNK.

Under the guidance of the Dean of Natural and Social Sciences, John LaDuke, the UNK Bell Tower has really stepped up its game in the past couple of years. The bell tower's voice transformed from a simple chime to the melody of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance, Here Comes the Sun by the Beatles, and my personal favorite, the theme song to our beloved Harry Potter (among several other tunes).

You can view a sample of some of the music produced by this beauty in the video below. But to really experience the true essence of the bell tower, you'll have to visit her in campus yourself. And also follow her on Twitter: @UNKBells -- (Yep, she's a her).
