[edit] "The Campanile"?

• When did it stop being called just "The Campanile"? -- Zoe
  • It didn't--``The Campanile" is just a colloquial name for what is formally known as Sather Tower. We still call it the Campanile on campus. Itsthomson 11:25, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Need it be compared to Hoover Tower?

I have removed the clause "...which makes it 22 feet (7 m) taller than rival Stanford's Hoover Tower." because it seems (even to this Cal alumnus) out of place in an encyclopedia. Petershank 23:24, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
