You rock. … And speaking of rocks, the stone used in the original 1981 “Good Samaritan” sculpture was Indiana limestone. Redone in bronze after smog destroyed the limestone, the sculpture was unveiled for the second time on October 15, 1995.
Several people answered that the bronze version was unveiled in 2010.
In that year, a sculpture was in fact dedicated on campus, but it was “Who Touched Me?” Like “The Good Samaritan,” it was sculpted by Alan Collins.
The sculpture depicts the story from the Gospels in which a woman is healed simply by touching the hem of Jesus’ garment.

A third campus sculpture is “Come Unto Me” by Victor Issa. Placed by the front entrance to Loma Linda University Medical Center, it depicts Christ’s open welcome to any and all people.
On May 24 at 3:30, a new sculpture called “This is the Very Place” will be unveiled behind Nichol Hall, also by Victor Issa. The sculpture commemorates the moment LLUH founder Ellen White first visited Loma Linda and recognized it as the place she had seen in a vision.
