Eve Carson Memorial Garden

Eve Carson Memorial Garden

Dedicated in 2010 in memory of students who have died while enrolled, the garden is named for Eve Carson, student body president when she was murdered in March 2008. The space is on Polk Place behind the Campus Y. It features a seating area and a curved marble slab inscribed with a quote from Carson: "Learn from every single being, experience, and moment. What joy it is to search for lessons and goodness and enthusiasm in others." Nearby is a blue butterfly bench donated anonymously in Carson's memory.
