A limb of a eucalyptus tree pokes through the window of a dorm room in Wig. During a severe windstorm on the night of March 20, a section of the eucalyptus snapped off crashing into the room of Rebekah Stackhouse ’03. Stackhouse, who was in her bed at the time, apparently heard a loud cracking noise she thought to be lightening and proceeded to pull the covers over her head. After the tree crashed into the window, it left Stackhouse trapped under glass debris to wait for campus security to remove the debris. The debris was cleaned up and the remaining part of the tree cut down within hours of the event. "Any time you put a tree next to a wall like this, the roots have nowhere to grow," Claremont Physical Plant employee Del Lindwedel said. "Eucalyptus trees’ roots grow outward, not straight down. The wall weakens the root structure."
