What is the name of the oak tree on the Gulf Park campus?

• A. The Friendship Oak
• B. The friendship Oak
• C. The friendship oak tree
• D. Friendship oak at Gulf Park

Answer: (A)

Names of landmarks are treated as proper nouns, so their words are capitalized and the exact official form is used. The oak on the Gulf Park campus is known as The Friendship Oak, with each main word capitalized and the article The included as part of the proper name. The other options mishandle capitalization, add nonessential words, or omit the article, which makes them incorrect references to the official name. So the best choice is The Friendship Oak.
