A view of the bricks and benches around the husky statue.

The Alumni Way project includes the Husky Statue Plaza in the heart of campus—Rovano Plaza adjacent to the Library Café—and the recently dedicated William J. Bernard Jr. Family Clock Tower located between the Memorial Union and the R.L. Smith MEEM buildings.

Giving Opportunities

The Alumni Way project incorporates benches, plaques, and pavers surrounding the Husky Statue and the Clock Tower to provide a community gathering place for Michigan Tech Huskies. Several gifts have already been made as a part of the Alumni Way project.
