Student interns create projects in the community, such as this third-grade field trip to a local farm last fall to teach students about the food cycle. Pioneer file photo by Kaija Swisher

BHSU replaces, diversifies trees after losing more than 230 in 2013’s winter storm Atlas

Black Hills State University students helped Grounds Supervisor Eric Hanson plant trees on campus during an Arbor Day celebration in April. Three trees were planted on the south side of the Life Science Lab on campus that day, part of more than 150 trees planted since winter storm Atlas in 2013 took out more than 230 trees on campus.
