This Community Garden is located at the north end of The Commons, which is housing at the University of Central Oklahoma. There are two rectangular raised beds inside the fenced area (two gates offer access), along with the supplies and tools needed to maintain the garden.
There are a lot of bunnies on the UCO campus, so there's a good reason for the garden to be enclosed.
From the UCO website:
UCO Suites and Commons Gardens
These gardens were established as a partnership between the UCO Housing Living Learning Community, UCO Student Transformative Learning Record, and UCO Sustainability. These raised bed gardens are located at the UCO Suites Housing Complex, and are managed by the Sustainability Living Learning Community and UCO Volunteers. Compost is also being used to create nutrient-rich soil and cut down on the costs of purchasing soil and compost each season. This compost is made from leaves collected on campus and coffee grounds from the On-Campus coffee shops.
