This spring we added three new trees to our arboretum in honor of Baker faculty and staff who have left their mark on our community through decades of service.

Swamp Chestnut Oak- Dr. Alan Grant, Professor of Business & Economics
Gala Apple- Dr. Rand Ziegler, Professor of Psychology
Quaking Aspen- Kelly Garrison, Mail & Copy Center

The Ivan L. Boyd Arboretum continues to be not only the centerpiece of Baker's natural beauty, but also a quiet, enduring legacy of the many special people who have made this place so great.
