The winner of the Livestock Publications Council Forrest Bassford Award this year is Lisa Brown, Oklahoma State University. The award is sponsored by Intervet/Schering-Plough Animal Health. It was presented during the luncheon today at the Ag Media Summit.

The student winner receives an all-expenses-paid trip to participate in LPC’s annual convention and now the Ag Media Summit. This award recognizes and rewards excellence, leadership and encourages professionalism among students. This opportunity provides the recipient face-to-face exchanges with leaders in livestock publishing. Forrest Bassford’s name was appended to the LPC Student Award in 1992 in honor of his contribution to LPC, and his particular interest in furthering the Student Award. The overall winner receives a $2,000 scholarship and up to four additional students each receive $750 travel scholarships to attend the convention.
