Competitive Activities
Livestock Judging offers many benefits to individuals who participate. This activity not only improves a person’s livestock ability, but also exposes students to many contacts in the livestock industry. Equally important, this experience helps to refine the decision making process through making logical, rational decisions based on the information gathered and help to improve oral communication and observation skills. Being involved with the livestock judging team also helps to build self-discipline and self-confidence along with improving leadership skills essential for one to be successful in future careers.
The college also offers a highly successful meats judging program. Competing in several regional and national competitions, this activity improves a student's meats judging ability and also allows the student to make many contacts in the industry.
