Recently, students joined in a remote learning meeting with Kristen Schnepp-Giger, a wildlife biologist with the National Wild Turkey Federation, who was appointed to the Pennsylvania Board of Game Commissioners.
Kristen Schnepp-Giger, member of the Pennsylvania Board of Game Commissioners and Penn State DuBois Wildlife Technology alumna, offered advice to current students during a recent virtual meeting.
