The 2006 Lynn W. Day Distinguished Lectureship in Forest and Conservation History welcomed Dr. Char Miller, Professor of History, Trinity University, to examine the central administrative, legal, and political tensions the U.S. Forest Service has long confronted and evaluate the key environmental challenges the agency and the national will face over the next century. During the 2005 Forest Service centennial, Dr. Miller traveled the nation speaking about Forest Service history. The talk explored links between the agency's past, present, and future and suggested what this remarkable organization must do to adapt to the immense difficulties that lie ahead. The lecture was held November 9, 2006 in the White Lecture Hall, Duke University East Campus.
