Anticipating the Summer

The school year is finally coming to an end. With finals around the corner and summer right after I have started to think about what future plans I have to look forward to. This summer I will be interning at Becks Hybrids in the production field. This will involve scouting fields and checking for things such as disease, weed, and insect pressure. I look forward to getting to implement what I learned this year out in the field and getting to move away from home and live more independently this summer! Overall I feel very confident with my internship opportunity and am excited to see what Becks has in store for me.

My internship won’t be the only thing keeping me busy this summer however. I will also be busy preparing for the next school year. A big tip for incoming students at Purdue would be to keep in touch with your school life over the summer. This means for me making sure my class schedule is finalized and ready to go for the next school year, working on getting housing and parking pass expenses paid for, collecting plants for our Purdue Agronomy Club, and of course staying in touch with my friends. Overall I have a lot to look forward to this summer and can’t wait for it to get started!
