The Toomer’s Oaks are being pruned this week. Work crews removed dead branches from the sick trees Thursday morning to keep them from possibly falling on pedestrians. Work on the oaks is supposed to continue Friday.
The removed branches are being kept in a campus storage facility.

I know I’m not the only one, but every time I see what that son-of-a-biscuit-eater did to our trees, I just want to shove some Spike80 down his throat (and thus make myself into something less worthy than an Auburn fan).
