A long-standing staple of the Springfield skyline, the Myers Hall cupola has served as a visible reminder of Wittenberg’s 180-plus-year legacy, one defined by academic excellence, strength, engaged learning, and the passing of light.
The cupola has weathered storms and time, all while preserving breathtaking views of campus and our extended community. Recognizing its importance to all, the Restore the Red campaign seeks to bring the cupola back to prominence while also ensuring Myers’ exterior can return to its beloved traditional color.
