The Bjornson Memorial Obelisk, located in front of Old Main, between Putnam and Burgum Halls, was dedicated on the morning of Tuesday, May 17, 1904. The Bjornson "bauta sten" which had been placed on the A.C. grounds in honor of Bjornson, the great Norwegian poet, playwright, Norwegian nationalist, social critic, and Nobel Prize winner, was formally unveiled. The buildings were all tastily decorated with bunting and the flags of Norway and the United States. A large crowd, variously estimated at three to five thousand, was on the grounds at 10 o'clock waiting for the program to begin.
