The D.B. Johnson Society Tribute



The D.B. Johnson Society Tribute is, without a doubt, one of the most underestimated pieces on campus. Needless to say, I never actually knew there was a story behind such a dedication. The Little Chapel itself is a very quaint and peaceful piece of campus that includes many historical attributes of the university including the chapel itself and the D.B. Johnson Bust. 





I was fortunate enough to have Mr. Walter Hardin be my tour guide of sorts on my quest to acquire knowledge about Winthrop's tribute. It was harder than I thought to capture enough pictures to accommodate for the amount of history I was told, but nonetheless, I enjoyed every minute of my journey. The most interesting piece of information concerning my research is the fact that this tribute and a large amount of Winthrop function through just one building for a good bit of years. That building was Tillman Hall; ironically enough, Tillman is hardly visited by students on a daily or even weekly basis.
