This holiday season students may be surprised to find there will be no Christmas tree on the steps of Sadler Hall. The traditional tree at Sadler during Holidays at TCU will be relocated to the Campus Commons.
Brad Thompson, student activities coordinator, said the 6,000 pound, 46-foot tree will be lifted by a 168,000-pound crane up and over the Brown-Lupton University Union Auditorium to place it in the BLUU Plaza on Nov. 23.
The tree is currently in Lake Michigan where it is "chilling" so that it doesn't die before the season, Thompson said.
