For Professor Traynor, the future looks green

In September 2006, the Landscape and Horticulture Technology group became a department, a decision that speaks to the college’s commitment. (Previously Landscape and Horticulture Technology was a program within the Biology and Chemistry Department.) Looking ahead, with the support of the college’s admin- istration, the LHT Department hopes to some day soon begin planning for a new facility. “There’s nothing on paper just yet, but my goal is to design what is known as a green facility, a high tech building that would serve as a center of hor- ticulture in this part of the state. After all, the Landscape and Horticulture Technology Department is continuing to grow – literally and figuratively,” she ended with a smile.
