are including in campus landscaping practices. We really do not have any type of campus sustainability plan to guide future decision making. So there are both short term and longer term goals to consider. Inviting an arborist and landscape architect to
walk the campus with us and offer suggestions would make for an excellent use of our time in coming weeks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:Calibri;color:black">when I drove onto campus today, I was horrified to discover the magnificent holly trees next to Roth Hall being ripped out. These were mature trees possibly 50 years old full of red berries
that sustain birds and beautify the campus. They were always beautifully pruned and gave everyone who works in that building great pleasure. The sight absolutely brought me to tears.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
