The beginning of the 2025-26 academic year is here and I hope you made the most of the summer season, whatever your plans for it might have been. I know many of our faculty members and students spent their summer months in the field and in the lab, locally and abroad, partnering on research that informs how to sustainably manage natural resources, adapt to a changing climate, develop and apply new technologies for resource management and use, and inform fair policies and practices.
