Under the canopy of a sweet little Espresso Kentucky Coffee Tree by Res/Rec! Gymnocladus dioicus 'Espresso' is valued for its drought, heat, and cold tolerance, making it a hardy and adaptable tree for various landscapes.

Tamarack is a beautiful native conifer that loses its needles in fall. It is native to the Chicago region, but is on the list of threatened plants for the state of Illinois. Here's hoping #984 thrives!

We have over 1000 trees on campus, with a wide range of species. From the 100+ year old tree in Old Main Plaze, to the ginkgos from the 50 Year Club of the NCC Alumni Association in front of Goldspohn. Do you have a favorite tree on campus? Do you know what it is?

While NCC has many modern, energy-efficient buildings, sustainability isn't just about what's new, it's about what we choose to preserve. Repurposing structures conserves energy. It’s a powerful way to reduce emissions while honoring the character and legacy of our campus.

As the heart of NCC since 1870, Old Main isn’t just a historic landmark, it’s a symbol of our commitment to progress and sustainability. Recent energy efficiency upgrades and smarter lighting systems help us preserve this iconic structure while reducing environmental footprint.

Carnegie Hall stands as a bridge between our rich history and a sustainable future. Here, you will find receptacles for electronics and plastic bags. The Star Magnolia out front flowers beautifully in the spring, while the Sugar Maple to the right puts on an autumnal show.

Growth is happening all around us! Our saplings in the tree nursery are thriving. Each tree represents a promise for the future—cleaner air, shade for generations of Cardinals, and a greener campus. We can’t wait to see these saplings grow into the next chapter of our story.
