The trees on campus are lovely. I only wish that they had tags or plates to identify their common names. These would make walks in the beautiful gardens on campus even more refreshing. I would like to know, is there a master groundskeepers' plan on file, something I could browse and use to identify our campus flora?

I would love to see planters or something alive near the door of Tillinghast ground floor! It is such a dead space all along the base (summer street entrance level) that any trees, flowers etc. would be a welcome addition. Thank you!

Dear Committee, I also would like to commend your efforts it making the campus
the nicest in the state college system. As Athletics is always hosting potential
future students and their families, we always here great comments from them
about how nice the campus looks. If I could make a suggestion as a employee
and a alumni, I would love to see some formal entry done with in conjuction
with the Pope Hall renovation. Simular to the ones done behind Boyden and
on Hooper Street. Lastly, it would be great to include Tinley Drive in the
completed light pole sign project.

Dr. Walter Hewitson dedicated much of his professional career at BSC establishing
a unique teaching garden of trees and shrubs from all over the United States.
He also created the Japanese garden on the north side of the Science Building.
Could the teaching garden be named in honor of Dr. Hewitson? Could the Beautification
Committee work with the New Science building committee and facilities to protect
these specimens from being destroyed?

Dear Beautification Committee: As a student of BSC I want to take this time
to thank you for making our school's campus look so wonderful throughout each
of the seasons that arrive during a normal year here in New England. Especially
this time of year, the Spring, your efforts are noticed by all of us here who
populate the BSC community. I am writing, also, to suggest that the barrier
on Burrill Ave be removed/renovated. Its a worn down cement block that could
easily be replaced by a similar cement block that could be painted or designed
in a way that would make it more of a 'welcome to bridgewater state college'
sign rather than a bland, broken, old block. I am involved with student leadership
organizations on campus and would be interested to find out if this sign could
be replaced by the work/budget/volunteering of us students, as I certainly do
not want to come accross as unwilling to help out my own suggestion. I may be
contacted at cmarkey@bridgew.edu and I thank you very much for your time, consideration
and constant efforts and successful changes you continuoulsy make to this great
school.
