Each spring, the Wisconsin FFA brings up to 2,000 high school members to the campus to participate in a series of Career Development Events (CDE). These educational program range from ag mechanics to wildlife and are supported by CALS staff and facilities.

Jeff Nelson, biological systems engineering senior research specialist, is pictured here managing the ag mechanics competition in the BSE lab.
