William Smith Memorial
This sculpture honors the nurseryman, suffragist and educational proponent, William Smith. William Smith had the vision to create a school for women at a time be- fore women could vote. He founded Wil- liam Smith College in 1908. This statue is a gift from the men of the Board of Trustees to honor the women of William Smith College. Smith is shown as elderly but active - an inspiring figure who was lively throughout his eighties.
