Butterfly Garden, Science On Show, Enhances Cheatham Hall

Wednesday morning Virginia Tech saw the birth of a monarch butterfly, with a dozen more ready to hatch in the next several days. The process has been unfolding for two weeks inside the front door of Cheatham Hall, home of the College of Natural Resources, under the curious gazes of students and faculty. It all started this summer with an effort by faculty and staff to provide some natural wildlife habitat while enhancing the outside appearance of the new wing of Cheatham Hall at Virginia Tech.
