This year, Virginia Tech has elected leadership at all three levels (professional, graduate student division, undergraduate student affiliate division) of the American Dairy Science Association: President Susan Duncan from the Department of Food Science and Technology, Graduate Student Division President Adam Geiger, and the Student Affiliate Division President Elizabeth Davis. This is an international organization of educators, scientists, and industry representatives who are committed to advancing the dairy industry and is keenly aware of the vital role the dairy sciences play in fulfilling the economic, nutritive, and health requirements of the world’s population.
In these leadership roles, Duncan, Geiger, and Davis are contributing to the guidance and leadership of the future of dairy science and agriculture. As you may be aware, the Virginia Tech Dairy Club has a history of accomplishments at the regional and national level and the Department of Dairy Science has a very established record and alumni base of dairy science leadership in the country and internationally.
Congratulations to Susan, Adam, and Elizabeth!
