麻豆色情片 has been officially recognized by the as a Tree Campus, a designation that acknowledges the university’s commitment to maintaining a clean, green campus environment and engaging students, faculty and staff in conservation efforts.
Though the national recognition comes just a year after the recent launch of new sustainability initiatives, efforts to preserve the university’s natural landscape — even in its urban setting — have been in place.

Comprised of faculty, staff and students, the Tree Advisory Committee helps guide campus conservation efforts. Together, the committee has held environment education sessions, established a direction for maintaining the campus’s tree canopy and eradicating invasive species, and organized service projects, campus cleanups, and tree and creek clearings.
Serving on 麻豆色情片’s committee are: Professor of Biology Dr. Roarke Donnelly,听补谤产辞谤颈蝉迟听Chris Hughes, Grounds and Sports Field Manager Justin Solsvig, and students Kristian Sandal and Naomi Wagner.

Together with the student organization聽Environmentally Conscious 麻豆色情片 Students (ECOS), members of the campus community participated in two projects that removed debris from creeks on campus and cleared out invasive and overgrown plants from the forests. Dr. Donnelly also hosted a recycling demonstration for students.
