On November 20th, our Organization held our annual Christmas party in which we had a secret santa exchange, played Christmas games, ate wonderful snacks, and had an ugly sweater contest. This wasn't all we did during this meeting, along with this we also decorated Christmas trees for families in need in Stillwater, Oklahoma, collected cans for our local food pantry, and collected money for Angel Tree. We raised $304 that was able to be spent on one little girl and one little boy in the Stillwater area so that they could have a magical Christmas. Our shopping trip was on December 9th and we bought legos, kitchen sets, gift cards, stuffed animals, clothes, and much more. It was truly a moving night and it is so amazing seeing a group of such amazing members and pledges wanting to change the world and help those in need around them. It was such a wonderful evening.

On November 6th, 2014 our chapter invited 5 distinguished professionals in their fields to come and speak to our members about professional programs in the agriculture industry. It was a wonderful evening that inspired many of our members to pursue professional careers in the agriculture industry. Of the 5 speakers, 3 were Alpha Zeta alumni. Our speakers included a veterinary pathologist, agriculture lawyer and economist, meat scientist, distinguished cattle producer, animal nutritionist and environmentalist focused on research, and a crop scientist. It was an inspiring evening and we look forward to putting on this event again in the near future!
