<br />/. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />-5- <br /> <br />that our progress has been excellent. We now have ten undergraduate <br /> <br />students majoring in watershed management, including four who were <br /> <br />formerly enrolled in the watershed management option in the forest <br /> <br />management curriculum. <br /> <br />Graduate students this spring total four <br /> <br />and we anticipate thr,ee or four additional graduate students this <br /> <br />fall. These graduate students have been selected from a list of <br /> <br />more than 25 appillicants. Without addL tional help from the state we <br /> <br />will probably have to turn away graduate students next year. <br /> <br />Increasing emphasis upon multiple-use management of wildlands <br /> <br />is inevitable. Consequently, a second major objective of our <br /> <br />program is, so to speak, to "expose" as many students in resource <br /> <br />management and related fields as possible to the principles of <br /> <br />watershed management. Some training in watershed management is now <br /> <br />required of all students attending our forestry summer camp. The <br /> <br />first course in watershed management carries only a prerequisite <br /> <br />of a course in plant, forest, or range ecology and is available <br /> <br />to all students in the University. We hope that some of our courses <br /> <br />will be elected by soil scientists, engineers, and geologists, too. <br /> <br />Interest, location and cooperation all favor the development <br /> <br />of a national training center in watershed management at Colorado <br /> <br />State University. <br /> <br />Needless to say we would be very happy to accept any contri- <br /> <br />but ions which you collectively or individually might be interested <br /> <br />in Watershed Management. <br /> <br />establish scholarships, fellowships or assistantships <br />1IJe.. mJo+ fV'ldS .,,,It,, 0/ n~ q <br /> <br />r;('~ J: <br />Q.t">7/- <br /><".,<]" <br />wood <br /> <br />in making to <br /> <br />I would like to call your attention,too, to the new <br /> <br />utilization laboratory on campus.
