One of the most significant trees on Seton Hill’s campus, the yellowwood is both nationally and locally historic. Nationally, Seton Hill’s yellowwood tree is the farthest north. Locally, in Seton Hill history, the original yellowwood tree was planted shortly after the Administration building had been finished, making it one of the oldest trees on campus. It can be seen, along with other small trees, in a picture from 1905 (bottom left). Located on the north side of the Administration building, it can be seen fully grown on the right side of a picture of the building (bottom right). The original yellowwood tree fell during a severe storm in the spring of 2012, to the dismay of many long-time Seton Hill faculty and staff (right). However, it was thankfully succeeded by an offspring located close to the original site.
