A New Way to Recognize Faculty, Staff, Students and Programs

CAFNR Communications and Marketing is proud to announce the launch of a new tool to recognize all of our accomplished faculty, staff, students and programs for awards and other honors. See the new Accolades section on the CAFNR website or on its stand-alone site. It’s easy to submit information for an Accolade online – anyone is welcome to submit and self-submissions are encouraged!

Please let us know about recent awards, invited speaking engagements, milestones, rankings (including link to ranking source), grants awarded, and retirements, and we will add them to the site. These posts also can feed directly into Division websites, if applicable. Each entry includes options to post directly on social media, so it’s easy to spread the word about the great things CAFNR folks are up to!

Thanks for helping us get the word out about all the amazing things you’ve been up to!
