At the base of the monument are two placards.

The one on the left reads:


This memorial is dedicated to those
stalwart, independent individuals who
were determined to earn their
educations at the University of North
Dakota during the hard years of the
Great Depression.


The Story of Camp Depression, and the
perseverance of the men who lived
there, will be an inspiration to
countless generations of students who
will also walk these campus paths.


The one on the right reads:

Goodbye My Friends

As the curtain is slowly lowered on the stage of

each life, soon all the "boys from Camp"
will have been stilled, all the

records have been blown away in the winds.

As one generation after another passes by
in years to come, many will be richer,
stronger, taller, and wiser.

But remember also many men whose names

are now unknown, who have passed
this corner of life; their lasting

footsteps can be heard if you listen carefully...
