Those are the only words fit to describe what I saw happen this afternoon in the parking lots east of the Peters and Science Buildings, as every last tree was cut down.
This November, I thought they were so beautiful I paused to take these pictures before going to class:
Today, this is what I saw:
Not a word to the faculty . . .
Not a word to the students . . .
They didn't even wait a week after graduation.
But they waited until the semester ended, as usual . . .
A Fresno State policeman told me they were doing this to increase parking.
The policeman told me that new trees would be planted. Great.
Kroeker: I couldn't even use that in a short story. Too improbable.
