Friends,

As we enter the season of reflection and celebration, there is still much to be grateful for – including all of you in our College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences community.

Together, through generous spirits and shared aspirations, we support one another by recognizing and celebrating what it means to serve our greater purpose of sustaining life. The innovation we create will shape our future, the students who join our alumni will become the scientists and leaders of tomorrow, the people we reach across the state will face tomorrow’s challenges with knowledge and resources gained through our outreach.

Everything we do is possible because of you and the community we have built. Thank you for joining us – together, we sustain life.

With sincere gratitude and warm wishes,

Cathann A. Kress, Ph.D.
Vice President for Agricultural Administration and Dean
College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences
