Here, landscape workers plant coconut palms at the east entrance of the campus. When the campus opened in August 1963, it had 7 buildings spread out over 152-acres; it was built on land donated by the United States government. Other fixtures on Central Campus at the time of its opening were temporary trailers for the bookstore and horticulture program.
