Behind Old Main is one of the largest sycamore trees in
Ohio. It has been nicknamed the “Kissing Tree” because this is where many students have spent time getting to know each, and even gotten engaged.
Back in the early 1900’s during the natural gas boom in Findlay, they put an oil derrick here hoping to find natural gas on university property. All they found was salt water.
