In a Feb. 10, 2014 photo Rita Morrill, left, and Mary Ellen Park, relatives of Justin Morrill, are on hand with many others for the dedication of Morrill Plaza on the Michigan State University campus where Morrill Hall once stood. The hall was built in 1899 and 1900 and demolished last year. Nicknamed "The Coop," it once was a dormitory for female students and also housed home economics classrooms. The East Lansing university says the plaza honors the Morrill Act, as well as the history of women and their role in the early years of the university. (AP Photo/Lansing State Journal, Rod Sanford)
