Over the past year, I had the opportunity to serve as the 2021 SASES National Recording Secretary. Through this opportunity, I helped plan events and agricultural tours for this year’s annual meeting. SASES stands for Students of Agronomy, Soil, and Environmental Sciences. It is an undergraduate program for students in agronomy, plant, soil, and environmental clubs across the nation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The first week of November, 12 students from the Purdue Agronomy Club traveled to Salt Lake City, Utah to attend this year’s meeting. We all were able to network with other students, professors, and industry professionals across the nation. Students also competed in a variety of contests including crops judging, speech contest, quiz bowl, president’s trophy, and more! Our Crops Judging team received first place at the Crops Showcase and for the President’s Trophy I placed second for the second year in a row.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I am glad I had the opportunity to be a national officer. I have gained communication and leadership skills through this experience. I had a blast at this year’s annual meeting, and hopefully you can too next year for the 2022 SASES Annual Meeting in Baltimore, Maryland.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
