College Celebration
For more than 30 years, CA&ES has enjoyed celebrating the advancement and accomplishments of our college and its impact on agriculture, the environment and social and human needs. College Celebration celebrates all the things that make CA&ES great that includes our programs, staff, faculty, students and the donors that make many of these programs possible.
College Celebration will not take place this year as we are looking to re-envision it for the future.
Student Scholarship and Fellowship Celebration
We host this event each year to recognize the power that philanthropic gifts have for our students and to recognize the donors that make our scholarships and fellowships possible. During the event, students have the opportunity to meet and network with donors to the college, other student recipients, as well as faculty and staff.
