Tunnels checking in for South Carolina's campus as well.

Urban legend is that they date back to the civil war but that's more than likely just a myth. They are believed to be haunted but that doesn't keep students away from them.

Most students at SC don't think the tunnels exist, but they do.

University of Alabama has tunnels too.

The State Fossil of Alabama: Basilosaurus cetoides resides in Smith Hall, Museum of Natural History on the University of Alabama campus. LINK





Also on display, the Hodges meteorite, the only meteorite confirmed to have struck a human. LINK



A statue, ‘Falling Star,’ stands on the grounds of the Sylacauga Municipal Complex. Sculpted from the area’s fine marble by artist Don Lawler, it is the only known monument in the world dedicated to a meteorite strike, the day stars fell on Alabama. LINK

A copy of the Quran from 1853 was the only book saved from the Yankee burning of the Rotunda Library on the University of Alabama Campus. It's on display in a library on campus.

Not really that secret anymore...but at UT you have the Body Farm (UT Forensic Anthropology Center).
