Hunter Appreciation 101 Confronting the fact that many wildlife management students these days are not hunters, a Pennsylvania State University professor is seeing to it that students are educated on the major role hunters play in wildlife management. Gary San Julian has established a program at Penn State and the University of Wisconsin that teaches future wildlife managers a comprehensive classroom and in-the-field introduction to hunting. "I was never really against [hunting],” said one student. “But I was uninformed. I realize now that I was at a disadvantage not knowing what hunting was all about. I plan to work in wildlife management, so I think this will help me in my career. The course taught me a lot, and it was a great experience."
