A Forester is First a Man

Abstract For a half-century the forestry schools of America have been turning out foresters well trained technically within the patterns of the schools' respective curricula. But is it enough that a forester be a competent technician? Numerous leaders in the profession, especially in education, hold that he must be a well-adjusted man and a citizen before he can be anything else. Hence competence as a member of society and as a citizen is required if his professional career is to be successful.
