​Update on the Primary Field from the Director

Some of you may have noticed that we removed the tree at the end of the Primary Sports Field. This was a beautiful tree but, unfortunately, its roots were showing signs of disease and heavy rot. As a result, I had it removed so that it would not present a safety hazard. You may remember that a second tree that once stood next to it actually fell over a few months back. Please know that I do not take tree removal decisions lightly. In this case, although it was a beautiful tree, I felt that removing it was in the best interest of safety for the people on campus.
