❓ Did you know:
 
🌳 In 1903, ten students — including Ralph Brock, the first Black forester in the U.S. — were appointed as students at the Pennsylvania State Forest Academy, one of the first forestry schools in the nation. The academy merged with the then-Pennsylvania State College in 1929 — becoming Penn State’s first location outside of University Park — where first-year students trained.
