Indiana University of Pennsylvania will mark a milestone this week with a special Earth Day event.
The university announced a commemorative tree dedication set for April 22nd at 4 p.m. on campus. The event is part of IUP’s ongoing 150th anniversary celebration and also marks the 25th anniversary of the Allegheny Arboretum.
The ceremony will take place in the green space near Wilson Hall, where a White Oak tree will be planted as a symbol of longevity and strength.
University officials say the event highlights IUP’s long-standing commitment to sustainability and campus beautification. The Allegheny Arboretum, which spans the entire 354-acre campus, features more than a thousand trees representing over 100 species.
IUP President Dr. Michael Driscoll is expected to speak, along with others involved in the arboretum’s development.
The event is free and open to the public.
