Below is the assignment:

Tree Project Proposal


On Wednesday, April 18, David Milarch will speak to our class about the Archangel Ancient Tree Archive and his search for a place to plant a collection of cloned ancient redwood saplings.

After hearing Milarch speak about his project, your task will be to write a proposal outlining how NDNU could facilitate the planting of these trees.

In writing your proposal, assume that NDNU is not able to plant the trees here on campus. Also assume that students and faculty are available, either through clubs or classes, to help with this project, beginning with Summer 2012.

Your proposal should include a discussion of the relevant State & Local agencies and issues, and how any obstacles might be addressed.

As you listen to him speak, please be sure to write down any questions you would like to ask Milarch while he is in class with us.

Your proposal will be worth between 10% and 50% of your final exam grade. It will be up to you to suggest the percentage you feel is appropriate.
