West Texas A&M Agriculture Department sponsors T.A.G.

The Agriculture Gathering (TAG) will take place on April 25 at 6 p.m. in the Agriculture Education Center.

TAG’s purpose is to recognize student accomplishments, develop stronger relationships at WTAMU, and gather everyone in the agriculture family.

Professor of Agriculture Dr. Lance Keith said the evening is for celebrating students and giving a farewell to graduating seniors.

“TAG is an opportunity to highlight student accomplishments by faculty and be a student activity at the same time,” Keith said.

The ceremony will be led by Dr. Dean Hawkins, and include various professors of the Agriculture department.

Competitive teams and organizations being recognized include the Equestrian Team, Stock Horse Team, Entomology Judging Team, Agricultural Ambassadors, Agricultural Business Club and many others.

There will also be a special presentation of the Charles Smallwood Leader Award and multiple awards for outstanding seniors and freshman.

“[TAG] is a great opportunity for active students to get together and celebrate each other’s success,” Dr. Tanner Robertson, assistant professor of Agricultural Media and Communication, said.

Lacey Roberts, an Agriculture Communication student, said she is excited for her first TAG event.

“I’m excited to go this year. This event is just a great social event and way to wrap up the 2012 spring semester,” Roberts said.
