"The sculptures were produced in the 1960s by Cornell undergraduate architecture students. Under the guidance of professor Jack Squier, these students learned first-hand about sculpture, design, and carpentry. They volunteered their own time and money toward the project, and participated in every aspect of the planning and construction of the sculptures... the sculptures quickly became a focal point of the arboretum. Industrial Design magazine has praised the Sculpture Garden as one of the most exciting and successful projects for training architects in the country. "
"This experience helped prepare the students for distinguished careers in architecture."
