    Our campus is home to more than 1,400 trees - roughly one to every 32 people working and studying at the University. Researchers from @Leeds_LEAF looked into the benefits the trees bring to the city. yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/latest/tr…

    This might be the best thing we have ever seen. Who thinks Skipp needs an honorary dogree? 🐾

    Here’s Skipp in the IC, he spends his time getting me to (and sleeping through) lectures and seminars. He loves his downtime in Weston Park! Totally reckon he should get an honorary degree...
