Sagebrush People Reading Group

Meeting

Student discussion group open to anyone who considers themselves remotely connected to sagebrush systems.

Within the QNCR (or likely even broader), we have a lot of research projects across the West that are directly or indirectly related to sagebrush, and this presents a fantastic opportunity for us at USU to periodically get together and discuss topics we’re interested in from our own perspectives on the natural resources spectrum.

We can cover many aspects of sagebrush landscapes – plant-soil interactions, human recreation, sagebrush restoration, mammals, invertebrates, etc.—so don’t hesitate to suggest any ideas! It can also be daunting to lead a discussion by yourself, so feel free to partner up with one or two others if you would like to lead the discussion on your chosen topic.

This is the last meeting of the semester; if we need to adjust due to finals/leaving for holiday, we can.
