19th of April Memorial Tower
In 1961, the former College of Liberal Arts & Sciences erected the April 19th Student Revolution Memorial in celebration of the famous democratic movement that took place in 1960. Upon the school's relocation to Gwanak, the Memorial found its new home in the April 19th Park near the waterfall by the College of Engineering. The Memorial is now located near Doore Cultural Center, after the relocation of the April 19th Park to the same place. The Memorial holds the words: "The Ivory Tower is the seeker of Truth and the protector of Justice. The uprising in April, which erupted from sorrow and anger, is an obvious righteous cause, and a cry of Justice.”
