On Saturday, Sept. 23, in observance of National Public Lands Day, students from 91²Ö¿â's Recreation, Park and Tourism Management program and the program joined other volunteers in planting trees in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
Professors in 91²Ö¿â's Recreation, Park and Tourism Management program, Andrew Lepp, Ph.D., and Philip Wang, Ph.D.,were also part of the group.
