College of Forestry Biennial Report – 2017 and 2018

The Oregon State University College of Forestry is recognized for our global research presence, teaching that transforms, and award-winning outreach and extension programs. This report summarizes much of our activity over the past two years and highlights the meaningful impact we have at all scales. Beyond the work accomplished by our community, this report is dedicated to the memory and impact of Thomas Maness, our dean who passed away on July 12, 2018.

Dean Maness knew our college had all of the tools to be the best in the world because our facilities are contemporary and state-of-the-art; and our people are collaborative, supportive and bring the intellectual horsepower needed to address the biggest challenges facing our forest landscapes and ecosystems. He knew our work addressed complex challenges while improving and changing lives across the globe.
