Forestry Building School of Forestry The school of forestry at Oregon State college, considered one of the best in its technical field, was first organized as a department in 1909 with an enrollment of 17 students. As it is located in a natural center for forest study, the Oregon State school has been afforded a choice background for practical educational purposes and methods. In addition to its well-equipped building and an arboretum, the school has a forest laboratory of 5,292 acres for demonstration and educational purposes as well as state forest of 75,000 acres, placed under the scientific management of the school. To George Y. Pcavv, senior dean and head of the school of forestry since its organization 25 years ago, goes the credit for the high reputation of his school. This friend and comrade of the faculty and students at Oregon State college has contributed greatly by his never-ceasing campus spirit. Dean Pea vy was appointed president of Oregon StatcCollcgcon April 16, 1934. Forestry Work 23]
