At Wichita State, there’s something for everyone. From the arts and athletics to research and retail—WSU’s the ideal place for students, university partners and the community to learn, work, live and play.

The Wichita State community came out Thursday, Feb. 14, to take part in a new tradition with the grand opening of the Love Locks Pod.

Everyone in attendance was invited to place their own customized lock on the pod. 

“My hope is that this pod will be a site on campus where you memorialize anything worth celebrating -- graduation, celebrations, progress, engagement, victories or the one you love,” says Ty Tabing, a consultant working with WSU on its place-making initiative.

Love Locks Pod is the first of three pods being built and installed on campus by WSU alumnus, sculpture artist and trades supervisor in WSU’s carpentry shop, Brady Hatter.
