Tradition takes root

College of Human Sciences dean Pamela White scoops dirt on the roots of a newly planted cherry tree outside MacKay Hall as landscape architecture students and Luis Rico-Gutierrez, dean of the College of Design, look on. The students planted three cherry trees April 22 to honor the Veishea cherry pie makers (students in hotel restaurant and institution management). The plantings also commemorated Earth Day (April 22) and Arbor Day (April 30). Photo by Bob Elbert.
