If you visit North Central’s campus in the summer, you’ll be greeted by vibrant flowers and lush, green trees, some of which are as old as 100 years. An accredited arboretum, the College’s grounds are carefully maintained — largely thanks to the dedication of North Central’s Operations team. This past spring, the team added an exciting new feature to campus: a tree nursery.
