Garden Dedicated in Honor of David Bloom '85

he most poignant moment of this month's Reunion was the dedication of a memorial garden honoring not only alumni but also faculty, staff, and friends. We conceived the idea for a garden after the recent loss of one famous alumnus--David Bloom. A group of alumni close to David helped spearhead a fundraising effort, and Arboretum staff worked long, hard hours to ready it for dedication. The David Bloom Garden of Remembrance will provide a focus for friends of the College who want to pay a tribute to those they have lost. While the physical space will anchor their memories, memorial plaques will recall their names

to posterity, and everyone who passes by its entrance at Mills Avenue and 12th Street will be able to enjoy the beauty of a place intended for reflection and renewal.
