Wesley Whiteside retired from Eastern after more than 27 years as a professor of botany. He is known for his botanical gardens that are showcased in the Garden Ramble each Memorial Day weekend.
Through a planned gift, Whiteside created a living trust which transferred his farmland, house and more than five acres of arboretum and botanical gardens to the Eastern Illinois University Foundation. He has also established the Wesley Whiteside Botanical Gardens Fund, which he has funded via an endowment that will provide sufficient funds to allow the university to nurture and maintain the gardens.
