Undergraduate Student Spotlight

Name: Russ Kibet

Hometown: Ida, Michigan

Degree & Year: B.S. in Forestry -  Forest Resource Management, Senior

Why MSU Forestry: Once I decided to peruse a career in natural resources, I started to get to know the Forestry Department.  I really liked the atmosphere of the department and the interaction among the undergrads, grad students, faculty, and staff.  MSU Forestry has been a great place for me to learn.  

Activities: I am currently involved in the MSU Forestry Club and I have been in many other student organizations around campus in the past.  In my free time I enjoy biking and exploring the outdoors. 

After graduation plans: After graduation I plan to put my forestry skills to work so I can gain experience.  I would like to continue my education in the future so I can work with land managers to maintain healthy forests in response changing conditions.
