Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Biographical Record of the Graduates and Former Students of the Yale Forest The Yale Forest School was established when the movement of forestry in this country was in its infancy - at a time when the majority of the people of the country were ignorant of, indifferent to, or opposed to the aims and methods of forestry. The history of the School has been coincident with a most remarkable development of forestry throughout the country. The Yale School has a very large share of credit for this development; without Yale and the other forest schools the results of the last decade could never have been achieved. No country has yet succeeded in establishing forestry on a permanent footing except through well trained foresters. Forestry had its real beginning in the United States when there were men to initiate the work of putting its principles into actual practice. In the minds of the founders of the Yale School there was not only a recognition of the need of trained men to carry on the work of forestry, but there was also a determined purpose to set a high standard of education that would train its students for leadership in the development of the science and practice of forestry. No task before the School has been more difficult. In the early days the technical demands on the forester were small. Oftentimes his first work was purely administrative, for which a very elementary knowledge of forestry would suffice. The demand for men was at that time so great that a young man with but little training could secure a place with the Government or elsewhere. There was therefore a tremendous pressure for a short-cut education, and to omit many fundamental features of technical training that did not seem of immediate practical application. But the School consistently maintained its high technical requirements, because it was training men to develop forestry and not merely to fill certain positions that might be available.
