    1. Victory Bell

      The Victory Bell arrived in Salem by rail in 1891 and is the third bell on Willamette's campus. The first two were destroyed by fire. Called "The Great Roland," the bell hung for a time in Waller Hall and then in its own tower at the east end of the athletic field - now the Quad. It was rededicated on Sept. 28, 1991, in its new location at the southwest corner of Waller Hall.
