Article with great history about The Toomer's trees

Recommended Posts





My dad told me a long time ago that Shug Jordan planted some trees when he was hired. Shug, when asked

the reasoning behind him planting them, he said he was going to be in AU long enough to watch them mature.

I never heard this story except from my dad. If indeed this is true, and if those trees were a desirable species

for Toomers corner, I think a couple of them would make a suitable replacement. Has anybody ever heard of

this story before?

I've heard this before, but I cannot remember what kind of trees he planted
