Get engaged with your faculty association
The purpose of the CNRE Faculty Association is to create an effective faculty organization that can enter into partnership for shared responsibility and cooperative action between and among the faculty, administration, and students in order to promote the general welfare of the College of Natural Resources and Environment.
As your CNRE Faculty Association representatives, the officers and committee members will work to:
