-: One of the most valuable experiences
that the Beef Industry Scholars Program really exemplify
is the opportunity to connect
with our Nebraska beef industry leaders,
and tour their operations and build relationships.
And on behalf of the Beef Industry Scholars Program,
I would like to thank Carol Krutsinger,
and in honor of her late husband, Ron,
for generously providing this gift
to our Beef Industry Scholars Program.
They exemplify what it means
to be a Nebraska beef industry leader,
and really appreciate this gift.
Our students are involved in a number of opportunities
being in policy and in communications,
and working on operations.
And these connections and opportunities that they get
with touring operations,
and being able to go down
to the National Beef Cattleman's Association meeting
are a number of opportunities that this gift
is going to be able to support.
And with that,
we are building the next leaders in the beef industry.
