Most of them are enrolled in FOR 200, the almost legendary Forestry Summer Camp. However, there are others taking such exciting courses as calculus and chemistry. In addition, thirteen students are off-campus completing their formal internship requirements. The only Wood Industries course taught over the summer is WDSC 201, our week-long industry field trip. Hopefully, we will have a new faculty member next year.
Faculty are also heavily involved in their research.
Dr. Elemer Lang and Dr. Bruce Anderson will be traveling to Europe in a few weeks to visit the University of Sopron, Hungary, on their research project dealing with properties of hardwoods for composite manufacture. Dr. Lang is serving on a review panel for the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Research Initiative Competitive grants Program. Dr. Dawson-Andoh and Dr. James Armstrong have been working on two publications on their research on dehumidifcation drying of red oak lumber. Dr. Dawson-Andoh attended the meeting of the American Wood Preservers Association and Dr. Armstrong will represent the program at the Annual Meeting of the Forest Products Society. Always do right- this will gratify some and astonish the rest.
