These marble columns graced the entrance to the Hill Memorial Library which was given to L.S.U. in 1902 by John Hill, Sr. in memory of his son John Hill, Jr. Thousands of students and faculty members passed between the columns until the structure was razed in 1956 to make way for the new State Library building.
