Bobcat Endownment
The 13 spouts on the Berger Memorial Fountain on the west side of Old Main represent the 13 University of Arizona students that were killed in service during World War I. The Bobcats is a senior honorary that was formed after the war with 13 seniors to protect the heritage and traditions of the university.
