◊ The University of Tulsa, which is North of 11th street, in Tulsa, Oklahoma was established when Kendall College moved from Muskogee, Oklahoma in 1907 and the campus grew on a piece of land that became known as College Hill. The Presbyterian Church that was established, just West of the campus, is still know as College Hill
Presbyterian Church.
◊ Standing at the Northeast corner of the University of Tulsa at 4th and Harvard Avenue, and looking down Harvard, you can see the hill running to the South.
