    WHAT IS THE HALL OF FAME ?
    The Hall of Fame for Great Americans, at New York University, in New York City, is a memorial to famous American men and women. It is a semicircular(hình bán nguyệt) granite colonnade, 630 feet long, connecting two buildings of the university. The colonnade consists(dãy cột) of a double row of columns supporting a roof. Each rows rests upon a wall four feet high.
    Against this wall, on either side of the central pathway, are set panels for 150 bronze tablets. Seventy-seven tablets have already been put in place. Each contains the name of a great American, the dates of his birth and death and a suitable inscription. On the top of the wall, above, set between two columns, is a bust of the person honored.
    The Hall of Fame, the gift of helen Gould (Mrs.Finley J.Shepard), was built in 1900. At that time it was announced (công bố)that a College of Electors,made up of hundred distinguished(xuất sắc) persons, from every state in the Union, would choose fifty names in 1900 and would add five names every five names every five years until 150 had chosen. This plan has not been closely followed.
    The rules for selecting names for the Hall of Fame have been changed several for times. At present any man or woman born in the United States, or a person whose work is thoroughly American, may be elected. Persons so honored(tôn vinh) must have been dead for at least twenty-five years.
