Hello, CALS colleagues!
This past Friday and Saturday, we conducted the CALS Convocation and the graduate student and undergraduate student commencements! These are terrific, happy events, and for our students - the people who make this a university - the happiest day of their time with us and the start of their next professional chapter. Thanks to all of you who make this enterprise we call Iowa State CALS possible, and enable us to launch these students as the next generation of great thinkers and doers and optimists.
Wishing you all, and your families and friends, a most merry and happy season and all good things for 2024!
Have a great week and look forward together to the spring semester. My best, Dan
