At the time of measurement, the College Landscaping crew was trimming trees in the garden and we learned the tree was to be taken down due to its
proximity to the Sorority House. After talking with the Assistant Manager of Landscaping who summoned the College Deputy Arborist, they agreed to
maintain the tree.
