Thinker on Rock, one of the University’s most popular sculptures, is moved by a crane in preparation for repair work. The sculpture is coming loose from its base and needs further bracing and reinforcement; the repairs are estimated to take 2-3 weeks. Larson Engineering and Acme Erectors — who originally installed the piece — are working on finding ways to improve the stability without compromising the sculpture itself. Students, faculty and staff are asked to leave the sculpture alone while the renovation is in progress.
