A Trailblazer for Environmental Stewardship
|
Dr. Gordon D. Alcorn ’30, the former professor of biology who started the ornithology collection at the Puget Sound Museum of Natural History, is being honored by the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge as a trailblazer who helped protect the Nisqually Delta. An exhibit celebrating Dr. Alcorn’s preservation work will be unveiled at the 30th Annual Nisqually Watershed Festival on Saturday, Sept. 27. Alcorn, who passed away in 1994, was an advocate for the watershed's ecological diversity, opposing a proposal to develop a port, and helped establish the Nisqually River delta as a wildlife refuge.

Summer in the Pacific Northwest is a beautiful time to enjoy the outdoors and explore both around Tacoma and across the region. Puget Sound students certainly took advantage of the sunshine, but where was Grizz? The university’s beloved mascot was a bit elusive this summer. Did Grizz go backpacking? Hibernate? Visit Bigfoot? No one knows for sure, but our students have some intriguing theories.
