Well, the University used to have a great little project -- a wetland, a
LOT of work by the student chapter of the Wildlife Society planting
native shrubs, putting up bird boxes, etc. That all went under the
pavement for the mall. I don't think the Univeristy gives a rap about
habitat and/or aesthetics.

Speaking of which, I would much rather have habitat than beauty strips.
For instance, I would rather ask people like Rosauer's and tri-state to
spend their beauty money on someplace like the Paradise Creek restoration
than on a few trees along the Pullman highway. The problem of course is
that they are required to do neither.

Cheers,

Lisa
