UF alumni, fans could have final resting place on campus
By KIM WILMATH, Alligator Staff Writer
Thanks to UF officials, die-hard Gators fans might never have to leave campus - and they mean never.
The UF Foundation, UF's fundraising organization, will present a plan to UF's Board of Trustees to install a site on UF's
campus for alumni and other Swamp enthusiasts to rest in orange-and-blue peace.
The memorial, known as a columbarium, will protect and honor ash-filled urns kept in individual niches.
The plan will be presented this afternoon to the Finance and Facilities Committee of UF's Board of Trustees, UF's
highest governing body. |
