College Day Held for Area Students

Over 50 students from Bureau, Marshall, Putnam and Stark counties interested in pursuing degrees in agriculture were able to attend the annual College Open House for Agriculture on Wednesday, November 16th at the Marshall-Putnam Farm Bureau Building in Henry. 
Representatives from Illinois State University, University of Illinois, Western Illinois University, Black Hawk East, Joliet Junior College, Lake Land College, Illinois Valley Community College and Illinois Central College were all on hand to give a five minute presentation about their institution and to host booth with valuable information for the students.
This event, sponsored by the County Farm Bureaus was a great opportunity for area students to meet locally with representatives of these schools.
