March 5, 2020鈥 猎鹰体育直播 has once again been recognized as Tree Campus USA庐. For the 11th-straight year, the Arbor Day Foundation celebrated 猎鹰体育直播 for its commitment to engaging staff and students in conservation goals and effective campus forest management.
"Tree Campuses and their students set examples for not only their student bodies but the surrounding communities showcasing how trees create a healthier environment,鈥 said Dan Lambe, president of the Arbor Day Foundation. 鈥淏ecause of 猎鹰体育直播's participation air will be purer, water cleaner and your students and faculty will be surrounded by the shade and beauty the trees provide.鈥
Tree Campus USA庐 reviews five standards when evaluating institutions: establishing a campus tree-care plan, maintaining a tree advisory committee, dedicating annual expenditures for its campus tree program and holding an Arbor Day observance and student service-learning project. Three hundred eighty fives institutions around the country were honored for their urban forest management efforts.
