To all:
Stetson University in DeLand, Florida recently implimented an all-native landscaping policy (for woody species) for its campus. The policy follows the successful establishment of a one-acre native landscape project that I initiated in 1995 and years of discussion and pressure from a small group of concerned individuals. [Project report available at: http://www.stetson.edu/~rsitler/ERC/native.doc] To my knowledge, Stetson is the only university in the country with such a policy.
As part of a research project I am working on, I am trying to identify organizations (universities, schools, corpoarations, minicipalities, counties, etc.) with similar policies. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks,
