      1. Lyday Heritage Gardens

        As you pass the university president's home making your way to the center of campus, take a stroll through the Lyday Heritage Gardens.

        The gardens feature a lion head fountain, a beautiful assortment of seasonal flora and ample shade provided by mature native trees.

        The Gardens were graciously funded and named by Gary and Sandra Fernandes in honor of Sandra Lyday Fernandes’ parents and have often been the backdrop for many scenic photos.

        The garden also serves as a demonstration garden for students studying plant science.
