Fort Hays State University Science Café presents: “Improving Natural Beauty and Wildlife Habitat at the Howard Reynolds Natural Area Through Large Scale Student Involvement,” Tuesday, March 6, 7:00 p.m. at Gella’s Diner, 117 East 11th St.

Grassland across the Great Plains have been severely depleted and degraded leaving them as one of the most endangered ecosystems in North America.

To help counteract these negative impacts we have recruited numerous undergraduate and graduate students to help restore the Howard Reynolds Natural Area and monitor the change in plant and wildlife communities that occur there, while gaining hands on skills in the field of Biology.

Dr. Mitch Greer, Assistant Professor, Dept. of Biological Sciences, is the featured speaker. The event, sponsored by FHSU Science and Mathematics Education Institute, is free and open to the public.
