Since 2001, a sure sign of spring on campus has been the flowering of the cherry trees on Alumni Mall, between Harshman and Kreischer quadrangles at the corner of Alumni Drive and Mercer Road. The University community has been enjoying the delicate blossoms’ annual display thanks to the generosity of alumni and friends in Japan, and the long-ago friendship between then-President William Howard Taft of Ohio and the government of Japan.
