The Cooley Hall garden has recently been a sanctuary for healing, learning, and growth. As the space prepares for a transformation to support expanded dining and accessibility needs, you’re invited to join in honoring its life and legacy on Thursday, May 15, from noon-1:30 p.m.

This gathering is for anyone experiencing change, loss, or transition – whether it’s saying goodbye to a beloved campus space, preparing for graduation, grieving a loved one, or holding sorrow for the world around us.

Together, attendees will write a collaborative eulogy, enjoy music and refreshments, and reflect on all that the garden has meant to the campus community.

If you have photos or memories of the garden, please pass them along to be included in a slideshow. Questions? Contact Marco Pflanzen at marco.pflanzen@su.edu.
