Kelly Chadwick, the University Center Gardensâ long beloved âplant lady,â retired in December after overseeing the UCâs familiar greenery for over 37 years.
Chadwickâs retirement leaves her former student employees to care for the plants, which have become a staple of the UC, until a new manager is hired.Â
