Quinney Welcome Bash
Student Activities
All students and faculty in the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources are invited to attend the Quinney Welcome Bash. Come and enjoy free walking tacos, watermelon, and Aggie Ice Cream served by the dean, associate dean, and department heads! Come see what student clubs are available and play yard games on the Quad. You won't want to miss it!
Beginning of fall term EC dinner

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.
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.

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.
