AMSA is honored to announce the establishment of the Dr. William G. Moody Mentor Recognition Fund. This mentorship was presented during the awards banquet at RMC on Tuesday, June 16.

AMSA members honored their peers at the 2015 AMSA Awards Banquet held on June 16th during the Reciprocal Meat Conference. This banquet highlighted the important impact that these award winners have made in the work place, in their communities, to this association and most importantly to their families.

In April, the AMSA Board of Directors held its spring meeting in Washington DC. The meeting afforded us the opportunity to interact with a number of allied associations as well as to speak directly with leadership at USDA. These conversations provided valuable background for ongoing policy issues facing the association. They also allowed us to shine a spotlight on key AMSA programs with decision makers whose policies affect our members. Following is a summary of these interactions.

Colorado State University Center for Meat Safety and Quality has joined over 30 other companies and institutions as a Sustaining Partner of the American Meat Science Association (AMSA).
