Alumni Garden

On the lawn north of Bethel's historical log cabin is our Alumni Garden which serves as a point of identification for persons whose lives have been significantly influenced by Bethel University.

The Purpose of the Alumni Garden

To provide a legacy of history for future generations of students and faculty
To provide ongoing funding for the mission of Bethel
To serve as a setting for various activities for the college and community
To provide the opportunity for permanent memorial plaques and individual names in stone

Below are ways you can contribute to the Alumni Garden.

Each brick can hold up to 3 lines with 15 characters on each line for a total of 45 characters or spaces.

A limestone plaque can hold up
to 6 lines with 23 characters on
each line for a total of 138
characters or spaces.

A brick wall holds three trays of bricks and blocks. Every wall
will be dedicated to provide a special way of honoring a person
or group. A limestone bench can hold up to 175 characters
engraved on the seat. This will provide a special way to honor
the one you love and respect.
