The east side of the Geisel forum is literally and symbolically connected to Warren Mall by the [[Stuart Collection]] work ''Snake Path'', [[Alexis Smith (artist)|Alexis Smith]]'s 560-foot-long slate tile path that winds towards the library. Its route passes a giant granite ''[[Paradise Lost]]'' and a small garden of fruit trees. The granite book is engraved with the excerpt "Then Wilt Thou Not Be Loth To Leave This Paradis But Shall Possess A Paradise Within Thee, Happier Far."<ref name="snake path">{{cite news|last1=Ollman|first1=Leah|title=ART REVIEW : A Snake in the Grass at UCSD : Alexis Smith's 'Snake Path' winds up a hill to the university library, symbolically linking it to the realm of paradise.|url=http://articles.latimes.com/1992-10-23/entertainment/ca-522_1_snake-path|access-date=8 April 2016|work=Los Angeles Times|date=23 October 1992|ref=A Snake in the Grass at UCSD}}</ref>
