Clay Hill Memorial Forest

Clay Hill Memorial Forest

教育 and Research for 学生

Clay Hill Memorial Forest (CHMF) is a 305-acre educational and research woodland that is managed by Campbellsville University as a regional center for environmental education and research on eastern deciduous forests. We promote conservation by increasing public awareness of the aesthetic, recreational and economic importance of forests. We believe that forests can be managed in ways that will allow their sustained use for all those values man derives from them. We believe that our best hope for achieving sustainability lies in inclusive education that is founded on research. We welcome those would use CHMF for educational or research purposes.

The site is used for field labs for courses such as ecology, 昆虫学, ornithology and conservation biology. Many students conduct or assist with undergraduate research projects at the Forest.
