The move corrected the mis-installation of David Ireland's Bigger Big Chair (2004-7), which symbolizes a “seat of learning” and was intended for the library lawn to connect with the university’s academic core. Its old location outside the main campus prevented proper appreciation, while Richard Beyer’s The Man Who Used to Hunt Cougars for Bounty (1972) is be better suited in the woods near Fairhaven, reflecting its subject’s hunting background.
