Hofstra Becomes a Tree Campus USA Hofstra University was named a Tree Campus USA in 2015. A Tree Campus is designated by the Arbor Day Foundation, a 501c (3) nonprofit conservation and education organization, to recognize current efforts to plant, nurture, and celebrate trees! Since 2015, Hofstra has met the five Tree Campus standards. Activities are sponsored on campus and across the country with a million members who support programs to make the world greener and healthier. Last year, students joined the Hofstra Grounds staff and Tree Campus USA committee and planted a tree on the plaza west of the new Business School Building.
