YSU’s first rock, not best known, but oldest

YOUNGSTOWN — Just about everyone on Youngstown State University’s campus knows about the painted rock that rests next to Kilcawley Center.

It’s a student billboard, painted and repainted hundreds of times to mark various events on campus, and it’s been a part of the campus core scene since 1965 when it was excavated during the construction of Kilcawley.

But there’s another, perhaps lesser noticed, rock at YSU that came first.
