A brief description of the institution's Tree Campus USA program:
The Arbor Day Foundation stipulates five core standards of tree care and community engagement in order to receive Tree Campus USA status: * establish a campus tree advisory committee; * evidence of a campus tree-care plan; * verification of dedicated annual expenditures on the campus tree-care plan; * involvement in an Arbor Day observance; and * the institution of a service-learning project aimed at engaging the student body. Having met these requirements, WUSTL's Danforth campus has received the honor of designation as a Tree Campus USA. Note: The Danforth Campus tree advisory committee includes four members of WUSTL’s Department of Biology in Arts & Sciences and members of local communities, including the City of St. Louis, Clayton and University City. All three of these cities have been awarded a Tree City USA designation by the Arbor Day Foundation as well.
