Tree Campus

The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley has been awarded as a Tree Campus by the Arbor Day Foundation. 

Urban Forestry Research  

Jorge Cantu, a University of Texas - Pan American graduate student, led a  campus-wide research project which has granted UTRGV with the Tree Campus USA Initiative.

Cantu's findings contributed largely to UTRGV earning its first ever Tree Campus USA designation for the Edinburg campus.
