  • LSU Hilltop Arboretum Master Plan
    LSU Hilltop Arboretum Master Plan August 2017 HISTORY AND OVERVIEW Hilltop Arboretum was entrusted to Louisiana State University in 1981 as a gift from its former resident and creator, Emory Smith. Emory and his wife Annette lived a humble lifestyle at the Highland Road property for over 50 years. The land functioned as a working vegetable and livestock farm, however there is more to the story. Emory had a deep love for the plants of Louisiana and spent countless hours collecting native specimens along the Gulf Coast to grow and display on his property. He opened the farm to the public - including classes of students in landscape architecture - and provided walking trails throughout the planted ravines so as to share the enjoyment of his extensive collection. Today, under the careful guidance of the LSU Robert Reich School of Landscape Architecture and the Friends of Hilltop Arboretum, Hilltop continues to carry on Emory’s legacy. Hilltop site circa 1941 MISSION The mission of the LSU Hilltop Arboretum is to provide a sanctuary where students and visitors can learn about natural systems, plants, and landscape design. SHARED VISION The LSU Hilltop Arboretum will be a nationally- recognized center for the study of plants and landscape design. Hilltop will build upon donor Emory Smith’s love for native Louisiana plants and sanctuary. Stewardship of Hilltop is shared by the LSU Robert Reich School of Landscape Architecture and the Friends of Hilltop. Hilltop is an integral part of the School which uses the arboretum in its research, teaching, and service activities. Friends of Hilltop will provide education programs to engage the broader community, operational support, and fundraising activities.

To stress his point he said to another guest, You’re a teacher, Bonnie. Be honest. What do you make? Bonnie paused, then said, You want to know what I make? I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could. I make kids sit through 40 minutes of class when their parents can’t make them sit for five without an iPod. She took a deep breath. You want to know what I make? I make kids wonder. I make them question. I make them have respect and take responsibility for their actions. I teach them to write and then I make them write. I make them read, read, read. I make them show all of their work in math. I make my students from other countries learn everything they need to know about English while preserving their unique cultural identity.

  • Report of Outreach Activities 2016
    Report of Outreach Activities 2016 OVERVIEW OF LSU OUTREACH – 2016 Executive Summary Most people are familiar with LSU’s instructional and research missions, but less well-known is LSU’s extensive engagement with communities across the state. For LSU, there are no ivory towers; our campus is the state. We learn from our neighbors. We listen for opportunities. We welcome the prods and pushes to do more. Further, LSU’s measure of success cannot be defined solely by benchmarks and national recognition—though we have both. Rather, it is a reflection of key partnerships and relationships we cultivate with stakeholders and citizens alike. This report is an overview of LSU outreach efforts across its seven campuses. It details how we leverage our resources to make positive impact on communities across our state, throughout the nation, and around the world. Some highlights to consider: . We have 224 partnerships with businesses, nonprofits, school districts, healthcare entities, and community leaders . These partnerships result in 489 programs or initiatives that serve more than 350,000 citizens of the state—by conservative counts. We are collaborating with industry, teaching skills to a changing workforce, addressing public health challenges, and expanding our efforts around college readiness among other things. Our students gave more than 130,000 hours of service. From the flagship campus alone, students gave 74,000 hours of service, which equates to $1.6 million. Through the AgCenter’s extension and co-curricular activity, LSU has a footprint in all of Louisiana’s 64 parishes, providing programs that include childhood obesity prevention and food safety certifications, among others.
