Dear Oak Managers and Scientists, Now is the time to register for the International Oak Symposium<https://naturalresources.tennessee.edu/oak-symposium/>m/>! Please visit the website and click on the Registration tab to register for this four-day Symposium. An Agenda 'at-a-glance' has been posted that provides dates and times for the 12 Concurrent Sessions, 13 Plenary Speakers, and 3 Field Tours. Registration will be limited, so please register early. A student discount is offered to contribute towards our goal of professional development. Check out our promo video<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dt7tH3q3-EQ> with some of the plenary speakers and topics. There are only a few rooms left at the Symposium hotel, the Hilton Knoxville<https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/knxkhhf-hilton-knoxville/> (501 W Church Ave, Knoxville, TN 37902, USA, in the heart of downtown). The hotel prefers for you to use a direct online link to reserve your room<https://www.hilton.com/en/book/reservation/deeplink/?ctyhocn=KNXKHH…romId=HILTONLINKDIRECT>. If you need to call to make the reservation, please call 1 (800) 774-1500 and use the group name 'Oak 24.' We will examine the need for adding additional rooms at an alternate hotel if we receive enough demand. Please let Stacy Clark<mailto:stacy.l.clark@usda.gov> know if you are unable to book your room at the Hilton. The University of Tennessee's School of Natural Resources is proud to host this event and are seeking sponsors to help defray costs for students and provide a unique experience for attendees, including field tours, panel discussions, refreshment breaks, and socials.
