First flagstaff
The University of Nevada's original flagpole outside the Clark Administration Building. The plaque reads "This wooden Pole is a remnant of the University of Nevada, Reno's first Flagstaff that was donated to the University by the citizens of Reno 1898. Originally 90 feet tall, it loomed high above the campus as a symbol of community support and national patriotism. It was placed, originally, in front of the University's second building, Stewart Hall, where it stood until 1959. Later, it was located between Morrill Hall and Clark Administration. It was moved to this area in 1998."
