UNIVERSITY PARK, CENTRE COUNTY - The Old Main bell was returned to campus on Monday, after having been removed in 2009 for restoration.

The bell was installed for permanent display on the mall between Old Main and Willard Building and will be officially dedicated at a public ceremony at 10:15 a.m. on Friday, April 23.
