The University of Wisconsin-River Falls' College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences has presented awards to two outstanding seniors for 2020-21.

Abigail Solum, a food science and technology major from Rice Lake, is the recipient of the Rochelle Junkman Seymour Award for the graduating senior with the highest GPA in the college. She was described by faculty as an excellent student who really wanted to learn all she could. Her academic adviser said she was great to have in class, definitely a high achiever, but always willing to help other students and she gained their respect for that.

Brooke Brantner is the recipient of the Dr. Earl Hildebrand Memorial Award, honoring a student who best exemplifies a combination of scholastic achievement, extracurricular involvement and leadership roles in CAFES. Her nominators call Brooke an accomplished competitor having received the Top Individual Award at the International Dairy Judging Contest in Scotland in 2016. She freely shared what she learned through that experience by joining the Dairy Judging Team at UWRF and taking on the role as coach for the Dunn County dairy judging youth teams.
