 CHECK IT OUT!

The FNR Student Council had been working very hard revamping the Student Commons (PFEN G006) with more computer availability, chairs, and a warm, cozier overall feel.  Stop in and check out the trophy case and colorful décor.  One of the white boards in the Commons lists the members of the FNR Student Council.  Let them know you appreciate their hard work!

 FNR HOODIES ARE HERE!

Have you noticed FNR students walking around with new hoodies bearing the department logo on the back and "Purdue University Forestry & Natural Resources" on the front?  Would you like one?  If so, please see Marsha in the Office of Student Services to purchase one.  They are available in two colors, Sand or Forest,  in sizes S to 2XL are just $25.00 apiece!  They would make great Christmas gifts!
