  • Chancellor's State of the U Address Is Sept. 11
    One year to go Construction of Lincoln’s Pinnacle Bank Arena — the future home to Husker men’s and women’s bas- ketball — is a little more than one year away from a September 2013 completion deadline. During an Aug. 17 media tour of the arena, Bob Caldwell of Hampton Construction reported that construction is slightly ahead of schedule and on budget. This composite image shows work inside the $179 million project. Workers started to move roof trusses (top right) into place earlier this month. This image shows how seating will be in a horseshoe configuration with the open end to the north (left). The arena will seat nearly 16,000.

Yet Nebraska has a unique forestry history. Pioneers of the mid-nineteenth century moved into what was popularly known as the Great American Desert, and they rolled the dice that this semi-arid land, seemingly incapable of sustaining trees, could somehow grow crops. After winning that gamble, the settlers yearned for the trees they had grown accustomed to in the Eastern United States. They missed the beauty of the wooded areas and the respite of a shade tree.
