The Office of Culture, Access and Belonging invites the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources community to attend the Jr MANRRS Leadership Symposium.
CANR will be hosting the inaugural symposium from March 14, 2026. The purpose of the Jr. MANRRS symposium is to expose 7th-12th graders to the Agriculture, Natural Resources, and Related Sciences sector. The symposium is a great recruitment tool for our college. The youth will have the opportunity to network with their peers and collegiate MANRRS members from MSU, the University of Kentucky, and Langston University, learn about the programs in CANR and support resources at MSU, attend interactive workshops, and participate in contests!
