A flagpole project is underway on the U of M, Crookston Campus Mall. There will be three flagpoles, one at 70 feet tall and two at 50 feet, with the related concrete and lighting work.

The project was made possible by a gift from Northwest School of Agriculture Alumnus Harris Peterson, '42, and will allow the flags of the United States, Minnesota, and the University of Minnesota to be flown.

The project will be completed in time for the Northwest School of Agriculture Summer Reunion, June 25 and 26, 2010.
