A statue of Jim Henson and Kermit the Frog seated on a red granite bench resides in front of the Adele H. Stamp Student Union at the University of Maryland, College Park, Henson's alma mater. Together the statue and bench comprise the Jim Henson Memorial, which was a gift of the class of 1998. Surrounding the memorial is the Henson Memorial Garden, which was designed by landscape architect Philip Cho as a gift from the classes of 1994 and 1999. Of the $217,000 total cost for the memorial and garden, the three classes donated twenty percent, and the university and student union provided the remaining funds.
