The Arbor Day Foundation named UT Southern a 2024 Tree Campus for its commitment to improving community well-being through tree education, investment, and involvement. The Arbor Day Foundation is a global nonprofit dedicated to inspiring people to plant, maintain, and celebrate trees. Since 1972, the organization’s network of more than a million supporters and partners has assisted in the planting of over 500 million trees in forests and communities in 60 nations. The Tree Campus initiative rewards schools, universities, and healthcare organizations that use trees to benefit their communities. Trees on campus can reduce energy costs for campus facilities by providing shade, reducing severe heat, improving air quality, and increasing physical health benefits for students and staff. Furthermore, trees boost students’ mental and cognitive health, give a pleasing appearance to campuses, and create shaded locations for meeting and studying. The Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree Campus initiative is run in collaboration with the National Association of State Foresters, with support from professional partner Bartlett Tree Experts.
