This bust of the first president of the United states, George Washington, is near the Leatherby Library and Wilson Stadium. Located on a high-traffic corner, it's likely thousands of students pass by the work each day.
The statue is nearly life-size, and was dedicated in 1996. The top plaque reads: "Though I prize, as I ought, the good opinion of my fellow citizens; yet, if I know myself, I would not seek or retain popularity at the expense of one social duty or moral virtue."--George Washington
The bottom plaque reads: Dedicated on April 30, 1996 in recognition of the establishment of the Henry Salvatori Professorship in American Values and Traditions and the Henry Salvatori Professorship in Law and Community Service. With special gratitude to THE HENRY SALVATORI FOUNDATION.
