From pioneering studies on forest management starting in the 1930s to seminal research on forest-carbon based climate solutions in recent decades, our forestry faculty have a history of zeroing in on the critical issues of the day and harnessing their talents to help solve them. This video traces how their teaching and research have evolved to address new challenges and capitalize on emerging opportunities over the years, starting in 1938 when the School of Forestry was founded, through 1991 when it merged with the Nicholas School, and right up to today.
