"If taking a shortcut through a spectacular rose garden doesn't put a happier spin on a crummy day, you're a lost cause...Thanks to donations by the late George Petersen, the grandson of Chico founder John Bidwell's gardener, the multicolored blossoms have been blooming in the campus rose garden since 1957. Most of the original 380 roses have been replaced by memorial donations over the years. A popular spot for graduation photos, it's look and don't touch in this garden. If you get caught picking a rose, you'll almost certainly be fined and/or disciplined by university administration.":
