To All Members of the CFR Community,

There will be an All-College meeting on Tuesday, January 28, 3:30 - 5:00, in the Forest Club Room.

As you are all aware, there are significant changes taking place in the College, both programmatically and in terms of budget. I expect the end result to be nothing less than a transformation of the College of Forest Resources. It is vital that every member of the community have an opportunity to provide input, ask questions, and make suggestions for improvement and that is the purpose of this All-College Meeting. I especially encourage our students, graduate and undergraduate, to take this opportunity to be a part of the discussion and bring their ideas and suggestions.

Members of the Elected Faculty Council, the Ad Hoc Curriculum Working Group, and the Ad Hoc Staff Budget Advisory Group will present their progress reports and I and my executive committee will be prepared to answer any questions and help guide the discussion. Any review materials I receive will be distributed via the web. The information I previously requested from various segments of the College may be reviewed at:

Please plan to attend and participate. Thank you and best wishes.
