Estella Hefley, Dean of Women 1933-1957, and her students, planted these trees in 1945 as a living memorial to the Ole Miss students who died for their country during World War II. The names of these individuals are listed on a plaque in the Alumni House, which was dedicated to the University's war dead in 1951.
