MURRAY, Ky. 鈥 The 澳门开奖结果 Hutson School of Agriculture (HSOA) has been recognized by the Murray-Calloway County Chamber of Commerce with the prestigious 2024 Chamber of Commerce Agriculture award at the 2024 Annual Business Celebration Awards Ceremony.

The longstanding collaboration between the HSOA and the Murray-Calloway County Chamber of Commerce has been instrumental in the growth and success of many of the efforts in the HSOA. The Breakfast on the Farm partnership is especially beneficial in connecting with the local community and showcasing the importance of agriculture in the region. This event not only provides educational opportunities for the public but also fosters a sense of community engagement and support for the HSOA programs.

"In the HSOA, we take great pride in our growth and commitment to providing a comprehensive education to our approximately 1,400 students across our three academic departments. This award is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our faculty and staff, who strive to provide an exceptional learning environment for our students," said Dr. Brian Parr, dean of the Hutson School of Agriculture. 鈥淲e are grateful for the recognition and encouragement from the Chamber of Commerce, which motivates us to continue our pursuit of excellence in agricultural education."

Additionally, the Murray-Calloway County Chamber of Commerce has been an important supporter of the 澳门开奖结果 School of Veterinary Medicine proposal.
