       Second Generation Olympic OakAt the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Naoto Tajima, who had just graduated from Kyoto University that spring, won the gold medal and set a new world record in the Triple Jump. Masao Harada, also a new graduate, brought home the silver medal. An oak seedling was presented to Tajima at the time, which he brought back and planted next to the sport grounds at KU. However, in 2008 the oak tree died and was subsequently harvested that winter. A new 'second generation oak' has been planted in its place, and is growing quickly.
