Did you know?
The oldest tree on campus is a majestic sycamore
London plane tree (Platanus hybrida) planted around
1810 and located behind Herron Hall (#69 at D4).
The Cal U campus has undergone many changes since
the University began in 1852, yet the sycamore and
a number of other original trees remain.
