A Proud History of Support For and From the San Diego Community
Since its founding as a teacher's college, San Diego State University has proven to be an invaluable partner in the growth of San Diego — our city, county, and region.
The Campanile Foundation, formed in August 1999, plays an important role in SDSU's long-term strategy and institutional commitment to increase private funding.
The Foundation takes its name from the landmark tower or campanile on the northwest corner of the original campus quad, completed in 1931. Though reminiscent of a Mediterranean church tower, it did not hold bells originally, but was used to camouflage a 5-thousand-gallon water tank. In 1946, Senator and Mrs. Ed Fletcher donated chimes to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the university and memorialize all SDSU students lost in war. The tower became known as Hardy Tower in 1946, when the board of Directors renamed it to honor SDSU's second president, Edward L. Hardy.
More recent gifts from Bernard and Doris Lipinsky and the SDSU Retirement Association complete the expansion of the Hardy Memorial Tower bell symphonic carillon, whose daily ringing reverberates across campus as a reminder of SDSU's proud history.
