Class of 2025 Gifts Olive Tree to University as a Symbol of Faith and Legacy
July 02, 2025
每年，毕业班向奥利维特大学赠送一份特别的礼物，已成为一项充满意义的传统——这不仅是他们感恩之情的表达，也是他们留下永恒印记的一种方式。
今年，2025届毕业生选择了一份既具有深刻象征意义又极为契合的礼物：一棵橄榄树。
数位毕业班志愿者亲手在河畔校区栽下了这棵幼树，它如今屹立于此，象征着信仰以及这一届毕业生的成长之旅。正如这棵树一样，奥利维特大学的学生在这里被栽种、扎根并培育，如今已准备好在更广阔的世界结出果实。
我们向2025届毕业生致以诚挚的感谢。你们的礼物将为校园带来多年的祝福。
Each year, it has become a meaningful tradition for the graduating class to present a special gift to Olivet University — a token of their appreciation, and a way to leave behind a lasting legacy.
This year, the Class of 2025 has chosen a gift that is both deeply symbolic and beautifully fitting: an Olive tree.
Several volunteers from the graduating class helped plant the young tree on the Riverside campus, and it now stands as a symbol of faith and the growth journey of this graduating class. Like the tree, Olivet University students have been planted, rooted, and nurtured here, and they are now ready to bear fruit in the world beyond.
We are deeply grateful to the Class of 2025. Your gift will bless the campus for years to come.
