Gamma Sigma Delta honor society announces awardees

The Iowa Chapter of Gamma Sigma Delta, the Honor Society of Agriculture, has announced the winners of annual awards presented to Iowa State University College of Agriculture and Life Sciences faculty, students and alumni.

Typically, these individuals would have been recognized during an awards ceremony, but due to COVID-19, the event was canceled this year. Each winner will receive a certificate from the Gamma Sigma Delta parent organization in recognition of their excellence. Gamma Sigma Delta is a faculty-governed agriculture honor society. Its purpose is to encourage excellence in agricultural pursuits and to encourage high standards of scholarship in agricultural science and education.

The honor society welcomed four faculty, 43 undergraduate students and 32 veterinary and graduate students into its Iowa Chapter. The new inductees include:
