SEMO PROFESSOR AMONG 10 HONORED

Dr. Mack Wilson, associate professor of agriculture at Southeast Missouri State University, was honored in Philadelphia recently for his service last year as an Eisenhower Exchange Fellow.

Wilson was honored along with 10 other U.S. Fellows and 25 Multi Nation Fellows at a trustee's dinner as part of the Eisenhower Exchange Fellowship Program annual meeting.

On hand for the dinner were former President George Bush, who chairs the program, and former President Gerald Ford, who was a past chairman.

For three months last summer, Wilson acted as a consultant to high school students and the farm manager at a community development project in Romania, helping them grow vegetables on a demonstration farm.

The Eisenhower Exchange Fellowship organization is based in Philadelphia.
