CALS award ceremony recognizes faculty, staff contributions

On Nov. 4, members of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) came together to celebrate the 17th year of the Research & Extension Awards and the 11th year of the Core Value Staff Awards. The ceremony, which did not take place in 2020 due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, recognized the notable and wide-ranging accomplishments of CALS individuals and teams who significantly contributed to and supported the college’s Land-Grant mission.

“Tonight’s honorees contribute to the life-changing work of CALS,” said Benjamin Houlton, the Ronald P. Lynch Dean and emcee for the evening. “I appreciate the chance to celebrate those who not only do a great job but also go above and beyond in their efforts enough to be recognized by their colleagues.”
