Go Knights, Bark On! 🐾 Get to know some of the STEP@UCF future service dogs and their raisers 🐶STEP@UCF is fundraising to build a dedicated on-campus play yard for current and future service dogs to have a safe environment to relax and play — offering them a break from their demanding duties. Traditional dog parks often pose significant risks to the well-being of service dogs, but this new play yard will mitigate those risks and support the longevity of these hardworking companions. 💛*Gentle leader disclaimer: The loops around the puppies' noses are gentle leaders, which are training tools, not muzzles. These tools help raisers guide the puppies safely and effectively, much like a halter guides a horse. Gentle leaders allow full movement and do not restrict the puppies in any way, ensuring both comfort and control during training.Learn more 👇

- 7:11Welcome to the UCF ArboretumWelcome to the UCF Arboretum! Take a virtual journey of the arboretum and learn about some of its many facets.The arboretum’s sustainability initiatives team leverages AI-technology to divert food waste from UCF's two on-campus dining halls, '63 South and Knightro's. The waste identified by the technology, called Raccoon Eyes, is turned into compost by community partner O-Town Compost. Some of that usable compost goes to the arboretum’s community farm and garden — helping to grow produce for the Knights Helping Knights Pantry.The journey continues as we show you the impactful and interconnected work the apiary, public garden management and plant production teams conduct, including opportunities for environmental research and hands-on learning for students. Next, from waterways to roads — and everything in between — the stormwater compliance team works to support and regulate the stormwater systems, maintaining the delicate ecosystems around campus.Wrapping it all up: The arboretum's education and outreach team develops and implements effective and engaging educational programs that teach the UCF community and the public about the unique species in the arboretum, including bats!Follow UCF on social!
