I think the Toomer's trees were a bigger deal. The rock is still there, though less of it. The Rock is a very big deal. Perhaps our admin wanted to play it down so as to not give recognition to the perps, or encouraging copy cats.
Killing century old live oaks in a downtown plaza enjoyed by 1000's every day is a higher level of sickness, imho.

Disagree, new trees can be planted but the rock is irreplaceable.

if the rock had been destroyed or stolen, it would be the equivalent. The Toomer trees are a bigger deal-- gone forever. We still have The Rock.
both are sickening but AU situation is worse

They can plant the same species but it is NOT the same.

I can safely tell you they wont be the same. It doesn't matter if they are the same species or not. You could argue "its just a rock" or "its just a sign". The fact is its a treasure to each school. Its all the same.

Not diminishing what happened to the rock, but it's just different.
