CAHNRS Ambassadors

CAHNRS Ambassadors Team

The Ambassador Mission:

The CAHNRS Student Ambassadors are an organization of student leaders that encourage students to pursue higher education and serve as liaisons between the college and the greater community.

  • Encourage higher education and promote WSU and CAHNRS to high school students.
  • Increase visibility, awareness, and support of the College of Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences (CAHNRS).
  • Participate in CAHNRS and WSU functions and welcome prospective students who visit the campus.
  • Educate the public about opportunities and careers in agriculture, family and consumer sciences, human development, design sciences, natural resource sciences, and related disciplines.
  • Network with students, faculty, and industry partners in CAHNRS.
  • Experience teamwork at its finest and develop valuable relationships.

Speak With an Ambassador:

Whether you are a prospective student, current student, curious parent, or high school adviser; one of our Ambassadors is here to answer your questions or find someone who can. CAHNRS Ambassadors strive to maintain a diverse membership that represents all areas of CAHNRS and to continuously expand their knowledge about WSU and higher education.

 

To get in touch with an Ambassador, please send an e-mail to cahnrs.ambassadors@wsu.edu.  Describe the topic of your inquiries or interests. You will be connected with an Ambassador who is knowledgeable in that area.
