Run the Runway 5K

Fundraiser

This race gives runners the unique opportunity of running on or next to one of the runways at the Logan-Cache airport. In addition, this race will provide funding for USU Aviation scholarships. You can also be a 'virtual' runner and donate any amount to the scholarship program and run where ever you are! Our goal is to raise s much as we can to fund multiple scholarships that will help our Aviation Students and find matching donors.

Girls in Aviation Day

Special Event

Come be a part of this great worldwide event! Girls ages 8 to 18 are invited to the Logan-Cache Airport to explore the world of aviation. The mission of GIAD is to introduce girls to careers in the aviation and aerospace industries. Hands-on activities will include flying a flight simulator, discovering how drones fly, photo opportunities with planes, and more. Hear from current and former aviation professionals and discover options in the aviation and aerospace industries.

Ecology Center Seminar: Dr. Keith Gido

Conference/Seminar

Keith Gido is University Distinguished Professor in the Division of Biology at Kansas State University. His research career is centered on the conservation and ecology of freshwater fish communities.

His work spans the interplay between fishes and ecosystem function, top-down versus bottom-up dynamics in aquatic systems, the impacts of introduced species, and long-term patterns in fish assemblage structure and population dynamics across prairie streams and Southwestern rivers. He has mentored numerous graduate students and undergraduates, and works collaboratively with many federal, state, tribal and private researchers.

Utah Agricultural Products BBQ

Special Event

This year marks the 30th anniversary of the Ag Day BBQ! The barbecue will feature Utah-grown beef, dairy products, pork, onion rings, salad, lamb, corn, apples, Creamies, and more. A collaboration between participating commodity groups, companies, and QANR, volunteers from commodity groups and the college prepare and serve the meal in an outdoor festival atmosphere where guests can try all sorts of delicious food. The event has become a beloved fall tradition at USU for the agricultural community, alumni, donors and friends. All proceeds, including your donation, go to the Utah Agricultural Leadership Endowment at USU to help train future generations of Utah’s farmers, ranchers, and agribusiness people through scholarship support.

LAEP Speaker Series: Joe Diaz, Which Career Path in Landscape Architecture Will You Take?

Lecture/Readings

2026 Distinguished Alum Lecture Review of different career paths that are available for landscape architects; including experiences in working for a non-profit, private sector firms, and a large public sector agency. A discussion of challenges, successes, and opportunities for growth in all areas. Joe Diaz Jr. is a licensed landscape architect that has worked both in the private and public sector throughout his career. His primary focus has been on working with communities and developing spaces that encourage community connections, safe durable spaces, and maintaining the integrity of the surrounding environment. Early in his career, Joe contributed to a wide range of residential and public projects while working with PDSA and James Dalton and Associates. His work spanned multiple states, including California, Texas, South Carolina, Illinois, Nevada, Colorado, and Arizona. These developments integrated thoughtfully designed entry monuments, community parks, gathering spaces, fountains, lakes, and pedestrian connectivity. During this period, he also collaborated on many government park projects around the country further solidifying his commitment to public-facing design.

Ecology Center Seminar: Dr. Rob Salguero-Gómez

Conference/Seminar

Rob Salguero-Gómez is Professor of Ecology at the University of Oxford, where he studies how populations of organisms across the Tree of Life respond to environmental change.

His research integrates demographic modelling, life-history theory, resilience science, and emerging technologies such as AI, robotics, and remote sensing to understand ecological dynamics under disturbance and climate change.

He leads several international open-science initiatives, including the COMPADRE and COMADRE demographic databases, and works broadly on ecological resilience, ageing, biodiversity forecasting, and conservation in a rapidly changing world.

LAEP Speaker Series: Mike Johnson, Turns Out, Location Matters...A Lot!

Lecture/Readings

In 1854, John Snow, MD, used geographic analysis and maps to determine the primary source of the cholera epidemic in London. Public health spatial analysis was born. Much more recently, organizations across government, utilities, and private industry have discovered the positive impact of adopting a GIS-based location intelligence strategy using spatial analysis and maps to communicate potential outcomes. This session will offer some historical insight into early GIS in Utah and describe the current diversity of location intelligence applications through case studies. Examples represent stakeholder engagement, climate and environmental issues, transportation, and development challenges and will reference outcomes representing a strategy for balanced interaction between humans and the natural environment.

LAEP Speaker Series: Alonzo Coby, When Land Leads: Indigenous Planning for Community Futures

Lecture/Readings

This lecture explores applied approaches to Indigenous planning through real-world examples in place-making, cultural landscape interpretation, land justice, stewardship, and planning policy. The session highlights how Indigenous planning frameworks move beyond conventional land-use models to center ancestral relationships to land, language, ceremony, and systems of community governance. Rather than treating planning as a purely technical exercise, this work positions it as a vehicle for cultural continuity, self-determination, and nation-building.

Alonzo Coby serves as Planning Director for the Shoshone Bannock Tribes, where he advances sovereignty-centered planning grounded in cultural identity, land stewardship, and long-term community well-being. His work demonstrates how tribal planning functions not merely as a regulatory framework, but as a powerful instrument for nation-building, self-determination, and the protection of ancestral relationships to land, language, and ceremony.

Ecology Seminar: Dr. Ashley D'Antonio

Conference/Seminar

Dr. Ashley D'Antonio is an Associate Professor, Gene D. Knudson Forestry Chair, and Associate Department Head in the Department of Forest Ecosystems and Society at Oregon State University. His field of research is recreation ecology, which focuses on understanding disturbance related to outdoor recreation in parks and protected areas.

He primarily use interdisciplinary and spatial approaches to understand visitor behaviors, use patterns, and related disturbances across spatial and temporal scales. Recent projects have focused on understanding and managing visitor use in Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Rocky Mountain National Parks, as well as state-managed lands in Oregon and California.

Ecology Center Seminar: Dr. Scott Wing

Conference/Seminar

Dr. Scott Wing studies fossil plants and climate change during the last part of the Age of Dinosaurs and the first part of the Age of Mammals at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. He is particularly interested in the evolutionary radiation and ecological expansion of flowering plants, and in the globally warm climate of this time.

One of his main interests is an event called the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), which provides the closest analog in earth history to the Anthropocene, the current epoch of human-induced global warming and global ecological change.

LAEP Speaker Series: Huaqing Wang, Landscape Research and Design for Human Health

Lecture/Readings

This lecture introduces Huaqing Wang’s recent research on how built environments influence human health, and discusses how these insights translate into landscape and urban design studio teaching. The talk highlights ecological thinking and evidence-based design as bridges between research and pedagogy.

Huaqing Wang is a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning at Utah State University, affiliated with the Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Center and the Berryman Institute. She is also a licensed landscape architect and an AICP member. Her research integrates landscape ecology, human health, and data-driven methods to examine how urban green spaces influence health and equity, with work published in leading journals and featured in outlets such as Forbes and Medical News Today.
