The purpose of the Forestry Department is
to serve Berea College, in support of the Great Commitments that
define the College's larger mission, as follows:
To manage the Berea College Forest based on up to date forest
science, maintaining and improving physical facilities and records
while enhancing, studying and utilizing varied resources: wood
products, water, recreation and wildlife. This is to be accomplished
with concern for the educational value and ecologic health of
the Forest as well as the financial well being of the College. -
To provide education and service to the Berea College community
in forestry related matters.
Both purposes are stated given the significance that forest land
management has to the southern Appalachian region and Berea College's
commitment to that region.
