Russell Cross

A fundraising drive for establishing a mentor recognition in the name of Russell Cross was started in September 2014.

The funds raised from the mentor recognition will be used to support intercollegiate meat judging (50%) and undergraduate AMSA internships (50%).

If you would like to help recognize Dr. Cross by contributing to the mentor recognition, please make a donation online.
