Each year, the College of Agricultural Sciences (CAS) recognizes employees with outstanding achievement at a Winter Reception held in December. One employee is selected from three categories; State Classified, Administrative Professional and Research Associate. This year Emily Hudson received the CAS Distinguished Research Associate Award based on the following nominations from her colleagues:
“In the five short years that Emily has been with us she has become an invaluable and indispensable member of our wheat breeding team. Emily is a key member of our team in all aspects of our field research. During preparation for planting Emily is the primary person that keeps the project moving. She is extremely conscientious, motivated, and organized. She recognizes what needs to be done and systematically assembles the resources necessary to get it done.”
“Emily constantly amazes me with her demeanor and positive attitude. She tackles the most complicated of projects, one after another, and makes it all look so easy!”
“Emily has been a key contributor to the success of wheat breeding and genetics efforts in the college. Her competence, trustworthiness, and positive attitude make her a very deserving recipient of the Distinguished Research Associate award.”
Congratulations Emily, for your contributions to the department and a well-deserved award!
