NACUBO, the National Association of College and University Business Officers, annually recognizes a specific campus innovation, process or program that advances environmental sustainability in higher education.
On July 28, the group recognized the WashU Arboretum as its 2025 Excellence in Sustainability Award recipient.
The arboretum at Washington University in St. Louis has more than 7,000 trees on its campus, including 44 threatened or endangered species. Last year, it received Level III accreditation by the ArbNet Arboretum Accreditation Program.
