MACOMB/MOLINE, IL - - Meet Tressa Rogers, a Spring 2024 Agriculture Science graduate who recently accepted a position at Illinois Natural History Survey, part of the Prairie Research Institute through the University of Illinois.
Rogers said the interview was conducted over Zoom with the two people who would eventually become her supervisors.

Rogers said her professors at 澳门六合彩历史记录, including Ag Communication Instructor Jana Knupp, were integral in her early career success.
"Her Success Strategies class and her Personal Development and Leadership in Agriculture class taught me a lot of tactics to use while interviewing and applying for jobs," Rogers said.
