[CANUFNET] U of T Faculty of Forestry

[Charlotte Young]

Oh, Jack.

This has been a long time coming, eh? I am very saddened. Where I did my PhD (University of Michigan) has done the same thing – it’s now the School of Sustainability and Environment (or the like) – they dropped an undergraduate program, reorganized a lot, and recently dropped “Natural Resouces” from the name of the School. It’s so disheartening. 

 

I guess it means we need to continue to “fight the good fight” so to speak before our world is completely doomed! I wonder how this decision was informed (or not) by our recent declaration of a climate emergency.

 

Grrr!

 

Hope you are well, otherwise, and enjoying it being summer.

Charlotte

Yesterday shortly after 5:00 PM, the U of T Board of Governors voted to disestablish the oldest forestry school in Canada. They succeeded 26 years ago to terminate the undergraduate program.

The process includes an amalgamation into the Faculty of Landscape Architecture with a promise to continue undergraduate studies within the Arts and Science program and to maintain current graduate programs including the MFC.
