As for the history of the Mizzou columns, the columns were part of the portico on Academic Hall. The University of Missouri was founded in 1839 and Academic Hall was the first building on campus.

On January 9th, 1892 Academic Hall was destroyed by fired. The columns were all that remained. After a brief period where they were thought to be unsafe and it was suggested they be taken down, the community rallied around saving them. They are now part of the center of the Francis Quad on the Mizzou campus.
