"I humbly thank you for the Craig Sallstrom Memorial Scholarship. I am Sophomore at the South Dakota State University majoring in Agriculture Communications and Marketing with a plant science emphasis. Upon completion of my bachelor’s degree, I aspire to return to southwest Minnesota and work for a seed company. On campus I am involved with Little International, Agriculture Communications of Tomorrow (ACT), and serve as the Minnesota FFA State Vice President. It is truly an honor to receive your support as I pursue a bachelor’s degree at South Dakota State University.”
