In another example of Penn College students giving back to their community, the Horticulture Technicians Association and PennDOT worked together Thursday to beautify the Interstate 180/Maynard Street interchange area. Student members of the club and lead horticulture professor/club adviser Richard J. Weilminster are planting 2,000 daffodil bulbs along the highway's on- and off-ramps. Under an "Adopt and Beautify" agreement the college signed with PennDOT, students also will help prune some plants at that heavily traveled and highly visible location.
