Rotarian Honored by DSC

(Honorary) Rotarian Dr. Durrant McArthur is one of three most recently inducted of Dixie State College’s 72 Hall-of-Famers! Just as he and his wife Virginia were packing to leave for Portland, Oregon on a 1-year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the son of Rotarian Eldon and brother to Rotarians Dan and Sam McArthur, was honored for a 30-year career in research with the U. S. Forest Service. For more than three decades the Dixie College alum has focused his efforts on understanding biological resources in the semi-arid desert region of the western United States. His research has been documented in approximately 430 publications, more than any other Forest Service scientist.
