After consulting with a certified arborist, Appalachian State University officials have decided they will cut down three trees to make way for the expansion to the new Central Dining Hall and Sanford Commons.
According to Michael J. Connor, the director of ASU’s Physical Plant, two dogwoods and one sugar maple at the edge of the new Dining Hall will be taken down.
University officials made sure to point out that since 2006, the school has planted 248 new trees on campus, and that 22 trees will be planted around the new addition to the Central Dining Hall.
