  Alumni Memorial Garden
  

  Alumni Memorial Garden

  The Alumni Memorial Garden stemmed from an idea by Dr. Clark, Professor of Biology at Radford College. He wanted a place where alumni could visit that would incorporate elements of an older Radford College campus and a newer Radford College campus. He chose a spot between McConnell Library and Reed Hall, in part because these were two of the oldest buildings on campus. Originally, the garden consisted of two large raised flower beds made from stones saved from the original stone wall surrounding the campus. These beds were placed beneath two of the oldest trees on campus, both oak trees. In the center of the garden, on a pedestal build from original bricks saved from Founder's Hall is a bell that once hung from Founder's Hall. Four smaller flower beds surround the bell. The entire garden would later be surrounded by a brick wall with large limestone tablets inset and containing various quotes and dedications. The garden was dedicated on October 2, 1976.
