Department Hosts Western Animal Scientists

The department rolled out the carpet for the 2000 Annual Meeting of the Western Section of the American Society of Animal Science. Held on campus from June 21 to 23, it featured a beef industry symposium as well as oral and poster presentations describing scientific studies on behavior, genetics, nutrition and physiology. A career forum for graduate students provided information and advice on successfully pursuing a career in the animal sciences and animal industries. Social events kept spouses and children busy. Extension Specialist Jim Oltjen served as chair of the organizing committee.
