Internship

Let our imagination run a bit, don't just concentrate on the ground,
look up to enjoy what is overhead, look through the foliage, the
canopies, look to the area beyond, see the patterns, the pictures,
the twisting and turning of the branches.... Remember that trees can
do so many things in a garden.... Remember trees are for you!"
-Clarence E. Lewis

The Clarence E. Lewis Landscape Arboretum was dedicated on July 10,1984 as a "Learning Experience in the Making". It is designed as an instructional arboretum for students interested in landscape development. The site has its beginnings as the old campus nursery and as a result many remaining specimen trees lend a mature appearance to much of the arboretum. The arboretum continues to grow, providing learning opportunities for students, industry professionals, gardeners, and community members.
