Welcome Back Students
We wish all new and returning undergraduate and graduate students all the best for the upcoming year!
Support a Forestry Student
For those of you that missed our spring giving opportunity, we hope that you will consider contributing to help send the freshmen and sophomore forestry students to the SAF Convention in Louisville. We greatly appreciate our generous forestry alumni that contributed over $4,200 to help send 26 students to the 2019 National SAF Convention in Louisville this fall! That provides enough funds to send all of our forestry juniors and seniors to the SAF meeting. Learn more and donate.
From the Woods Kentucky
From the Woods Kentucky made the front page of SAF’s The Forestry Source! From the Woods Kentucky is a weekly show that airs this fall on Thursdays from 10-11am. Listen live at wrfl.fm or listen to past episodes on our website or where ever you get your podcasts from.
