The AASV’s Student Recruitment Committee has selected Daren Miller (Purdue) as the 2009 Alternate Student Delegate to the AASV Board of Directors. The Student and Alternate Student Delegates are non-voting members of the AASV Board and represent the interests of student members.
Growing up, Daren’s family ran a contract research business specializing in swine near Terre Haute, IN sparking his interest in swine production. He also participated in 4-H, the National Junior Swine Association and worked for a local veterinarian which furthered his interest in swine medicine.
Daren will replace 2008 Alternate Delegate Jess Waddell (ISU) who becomes the 2009 Student Delegate following the completion of Lynda Gould’s (U of IL) term as 2008 Student Delegate during the AASV Annual Meeting in Dallas, TX. Please join us in thanking Lynda for her service and congratulating Jess and Daren on their opportunities to continue working with the Board to address issues of importance to the profession and our student members.
