Endowment Fund Established for Student Activities

An endowment account to support student activities has been established from funds received during the recent STUDENTS FIRST campaign. Earnings from this account will be used to support student functions not covered by state (University) funds.

Examples include:

• Sending officers of Block & Bridle to the annual National Convention
• Providing travel funds for students to attend field days, farm shows, and meetings of professional scientific societies and animal industry organizations
• Supporting our Dairy Show Team at county and state fairs
• Funding field trips to visit livestock and dairy producers
• Fall and spring faculty/student BBQs
• Commencement reception for students and their parents
• Student internships
• Student research.

Gifts to this endowment fund will be greatly appreciated!
