The radio station WHAD operated out of Marquette Hall from the time of its construction until the university sold its rights and equipment in 1934. The Gothic tower of Marquette Hall holds the university carillon, a set of 48 bells, installed in 1967. Earlier address was 13th Street and Grand Avenue. |
