The grove just north of the psychology building includes several interesting trees. The cherry and the spruce were planted to honor former chemistry professor Arthur Scott and his wife Vera. The weeping giant sequoia and the zebrina western redcedar were purchased by psychology professor Allen Neuringer, who gave them to the seniors in his department as graduation presents. And there are also four older apple trees of several varieties that regularly produce a large crop.
The rows of trees to the south of the Psychology building are remnants from a commercial tree nursery that once owned this property. The trees were planted close together in straight lines to be raised until they were old enough to be sold. When the nursery went out of business, the saplings that remained were left in their lines to grow into large trees.
