Roger Blobaum, a generous donor to the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, has made funds available to help students attend organic farming conferences and present their work.
The Blobaum funds must be used to support organic farming conference travel for College of Agricultural and Life Sciences (CALS) graduate students that are engaged in organic research in CALS. Students may receive up to $750 for in-state travel and up to $1500 for out-of-state travel. Funds should be used to cover expenses related to conferences such as travel, registration, meals and lodging. The conference must take place before the end of February 2024. An undergraduate or master’s student may not receive more than two awards. A PhD student may not receive more than four awards. Undergraduate or Master’s students who continue on for a PhD at UW-Madison are limited to four awards during their combined undergraduate and graduate programs at UW Madison.
