Support excellence across the College of Ag

Tobie Blanchard

Join us in fostering the next generation of agriculture leaders by supporting the Dean's Excellence Fund. Your contributions are essential for recruiting top students, enhancing educational experiences and addressing immediate needs. Last year, the fund enabled students to travel to the Agriculture Future of America (AFA) conference, where students connected with industry leaders and built leadership skills. It also supported the LSU chapter of Minorities in Agriculture, Natural Resources and Related Sciences (MANRRS), leading to its quiz bowl championship win and the election of the first LSU student as a national vice president. The fund further provided study abroad scholarships, allowing students to return to Mendel University in the Czech Republic.

Your donations directly support:

  • Scholarships that open educational opportunities for students.
  • Stipends for travel and conference attendance, broadening academic and professional horizons.
  • Recruitment and retention of top faculty and student talent.
  • Classroom enhancements with new technology and essential equipment.
  • Advancement of cutting-edge research through necessary funding.
  • Discretionary funds for the dean to address immediate needs and seize emerging opportunities.
  • Make a tangible impact on agriculture education by contributing to the Dean's Excellence Fund today.
