Does the institution use xeriscape landscaping techniques, including the selection of drought tolerant plants?:
A brief description of the program or practice:
All of the Ivy plantings on campus were selected since they are drought tolerant plants. New areas where these are planted include Morris Daily Auditorium (backside) Hoover Hall, and many parts of Campus Village (the towers). SJSU FD&O has also implemented a procedure that specifies native plants and drought tolerant plants are to be planted in future garden areas.
