This bell was cast by the Mcshane Bell Foundry of Baltimore, Md. and has resided on the UGA plaza since 1988/89. Prior to that it was in storage at Meyers hall, which for many years housed freshman and sophmore women. It is believed to have been used as a dinner bell for the dining room and was nicknamed the "Jennie Bell" in honor of Jennie Bell Meyers, the buildings namesake and the dorm's housemother for many years.
