The
Collegiate FFA Chapter sponsored the Hamburger Kickoff at the beginning
of the fall semester, designed to encourage new students to gather
with the "more experienced" students along with members
of the faculty and staff. Ag Workers Mutual Insurance Company and
Mr. Alton Burgess of National Farm Life Insurance teamed up to cosponsor,
the event with Collegiate FFA.
Chapter
members staffed the concession stand at the SHSU NIRA Collegiate
Rodeo to raise funds to offset their expenses in attending the National
FFA Convention. There, they participated in the Alpha Tau Alpha
Ag Education Society Conclave.
Members
also hosted the Annual Halloween Bash, a fun event held at the Walker
County Fairgrounds and attended by over 2000 students from the department.
