University of Illinois Altgeld Hall Chimes
The Altgeld Hall Chimes ringing out over the University of Illinois Quad is a tradition many graduates never forget. Alison Davis Wood visits chimemaster Albert Marien and the students who help him sound the chimes at 11:50 am and 12:50 pm every day that classes are held on campus.

While the clock chimes are controlled mechanically, musical numbers are done manually using the wooden device seen in the video.
Tours are free and open to the public from 12:30-1:00 (check for details because I was recently told the tower is temporarily closed for touring).

McFarland Carillon at the University of Illinois
What do you do when you get your new airspace clearance to 400 feet on the campus of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign? You take a drone out to shoot something tall. The McFarland Carillon is 185 tall with 49 bells. My preferred video drone is out for repair, so the Solo had to do the job today.

Small UIUC Quad Tour & Largest what??
My daughter and I were down at the flagship university of our state, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). It was registration and orientation day. Woot woot! I'm sorry I stopped reading the plaque by the Alma Mater. I get really embarrassed/shy when people walk up to me out of nowhere. Lorado Taft received his B.A and M.A. from university, and became a famous sculptor. His works are throughout the campus, the state, and the United States.

Bells Ringing at Altgeld Hall
Video of Altgeld Hall at my Alma Mater, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. On a typical day, I would hear the bells ringing on the hour and half hour while walking to and from classes. It was great to be able to capture this memory when I went back for a visit. Listen for the bells about 50 seconds into the video.
