Student can find the University Cemetery at the corner of Alderman and McCormick Roads. The cemetery provides a nontraditional quiet place to relax or study.
Some students even sunbathe there.
Those names can be found carved in stone in more than one spot around Grounds, though. As most first-year students discover, the namesakes of many of their houses literally lie nearby, in the University Cemetery. Although the cemetery contains numerous famous names, two of its more notable residents are buried outside the walls. Seal and Beta, the canine Cavalier mascots of the 1930s and 40s, lie across the lane from the cemetery. Often they receive more attention than the residents proper.
