Our faculty are helping shape conversations about the people who make public service possible.

Thomas Bryer, professor in Old Dominion University’s School of Public Service, was recently featured in Sierra magazine in a story highlighting the often-unsung volunteers who help care for and protect America’s public lands.

The story explores the vital role volunteers play in public lands stewardship—and the spirit of civic engagement and service that sustains our shared spaces.

We’re proud to see Professor Bryer’s expertise contributing to this important conversation.
