building on campus. Bas-relief plaques were placed above the entrance on the front of the building. A closeup of the plaque above the
window (front cover) has a cross at its center that represents Divine wisdom, or science of religion. Above the cross is a pen representing
the arts and below the cross is a compass representing the sciences. As seen on the back cover, the plaque over the doorway depicts oil
wells. The building is named in memory of Fr. Joseph de La Roche d'Allion, O.F.M., a Franciscan missionary priest from France and the
first European to discover oil in North America.
