College of Business Newsletter"This is a larger-than-life brown marble sculpture of a buffalo and calf by artist Doug Scott of New Mexico. It is 9 feet high x 13 feet long and was sculpted from a block of marble weighing 72,000 pounds. The original block was quarried in New Mexico and the majority of the sculpting occurred over the course of a year before being moved to it’s new home in Canyon, TX. The “Original Texans” sculpture sits prominently along Buffalo Walk north of Old Main and is encased in a cascading water feature."
