During an annual picnic on September 13, 1994, the College formally named the sculpture garden the Boris and Bertha Blai Sculpture Garden, after three of Boris Blai’s sculptures (Seal Girl, The Evening Garment, and In Green Pastures) were donated to the campus by provost and dean Ruth Leventhal and her sister.  Dr. Leventhal was Boris Blai’s stepdaughter.

Shown in the image here is Oliver LaGrone’s The University as Family which had been dedicated to the campus a year earlier.
