Tree Removal

Jeff Jabco told the Gazette that "This swamp white oak ... was planted in 1884. It was struck by lightning several years ago and appeared fine except for a crack in the back that extended the entire length of the trunk. Since the tree leafed out this past spring it has been declining and had gotten to the point where the tree was mainly dead. It will be replaced with a new swamp white oak next spring."

Weather

Friday: Rain Showers. High of 86.

There's a new class of freshmen wandering around campus.

Overnight: Partly Cloudy. Low of 66.

Now, is it just me, or do they wear their Swat lanyards less than last year's freshmen did?

Saturday: Mostly Sunny. High of 78.

Surely this is a sign of a good year to come.
