Cliff Becker Agriculture Excellence Awards

Cliff Becker Agriculture Excellence Awards

At this year's WIU School of Agriculture banquet, we were very fortunate to announce for the first time the Cliff Becker Agriculture Excellence Awards to four of our well deserving students. The Cliff Becker Agriculture Excellence endowed fund was established to recognize students who go above and beyond their degree program and demonstrate those sought after leadership skills desired by the agricultural industry. From left to right: Ella Cagwin (senior), McKayla Jennings (junior), James Bierman (sophomore), and Meg Simmons (freshman). They all have different stories to tell, but exemplify Cliff's positive attitude and dedication to the agriculture industry. Congratulations Necks!

Congratulations on these inaugural scholarships established in recognition of someone who left us way too early, but will be long remembered.
