Hilliard Fall Foliage Quad

Surrounded by the Ansari Business, Mack Social Science, Reynolds Journalism, and Chemistry buildings, the quad is bright with yellow and red colors during the fall season. The lawn is interspersed with ash, oak, Weeping White Birch, Weeping Sequoia, and evergreen trees. Albert Hilliard was an attorney in Reno in the late 1940s and served on the Board of Regents. He and his wife, Emily, maintained such strong interest in the university that they donated a portion of their estate to a chair for a distinguished professor in the humanities.
