Some people will even tell you that he did it on purpose. Morehead, along with Rufus Lenoir Patterson, gave UNC $100,000 to construct the Morehead-Patterson Bell Tower. Seen from the front steps of South Building, the tower's conical top seemingly fits on the library's dome like a dunce cap on a bald head. According to a 45 year old campus legend, Morehead was angered because the library, built the year before, was named for Wilson instead of himself. Supposedly in reprisal, Morehead then had the Bell Tower constructed in its strategic location. But Louis Round Wilson, who is the oldest living alumnus of UNC and resides in Chapel Hill, said, "Certainly there was no idea of .putting a fool's cap on top of the library. That idea was in some students' heads probably the same ones that called Swain Hall 'Swine HauV" Wilson said that several other sites for construction of the Bell Tower were reviewed before the existing one was approved. "The first one was on top of Old East," he said. "But they had to repair it because it was about to fall apart, so they decided not to build it there." The second suggested site was the top of South Building. This would Staff photo by Gary Lobraieo The Morehead Bell Tower, built one year after Wilson library, sits like a fool's cap on the library's dome. have created "the dunce cap effect" for people on the south side of the library. Strangely enough, this location was proposed by Morehead. Morehead also wanted South Building to be renamed "The Morehead Building." "The trustees and alumni smoked that idea," Wilson said. "They didn't want to change the name because it had traditionally been called South Building and 'Old Main."' Morehead then proposed that the tower be built on the top of Wilson Library. "I opposed that," Wilson said. The existing site was the next one that was suggested. "The trustees told Morehead," Wilson said, "that the spot would someday be in the middle of the campus buildings since they were planning to build on the south part of the campus. Morehead thought it sounded like a good idea, so they built it there." When Wilson was asked if there was even a speck of truth in the Bell Tower legend, he said, "It wasn't designed for that purpose at all." He then added, "But it does look that way like a fool's cap."
