Celebrate the Belltower

Built to honor NC State alumni who died while serving in World War I, the Memorial Belltower has become a symbol of inspiration and a centerpiece for the Wolfpack community. We light it red to celebrate big wins. We place our class rings inside its Shrine Room to spend the night. We pose in front of it for graduation, weddings and other milestones.

A century after construction began, the Belltower has finally been completed with real bells thanks to a gift from the Henry family.
