Range students place in Wyoming
Chadron State College range management students placed high in competitions during the joint meeting of the Wyoming Section of the Society for Range Management and the Wyoming Association of Conservation Districts as the fall 2011 semester was winding down.
Two CSC teams placed in the rangeland cup, a problem-solving competition that addresses topics of importance to rangeland ecology and management. CSC also had two placewinners in extemporaneous speaking, which required participants to draw three topics and prepare a six- to 12-minute speech on one of those themes within two hours.
Claiming second place in the rangeland cup was the team of Jenita Qualm of Ericson, Samantha Evans of Cody, Jamie Menuey of Hyannis and Katie Whalen of Aladdin, Wyo. Third went to Hadley Hill of Wauneta, Tell Dietrich, Zach Wilkinson of Litchfield, Ill., and Reid Badje of Hay Springs. In extemporaneous speaking, Evans placed second and Qualm was third.
The event was Nov. 15-17 at Lander, Wyo.
