"We want to help the TDA to establish some central themes, cool messages and videos that they can send out to a wide audience, and also turn this in to a learning opportunity for our students."
"I feel like it is more beneficial for our students to take this as a great opportunity to apply some of their learned knowledge and skills."

TTU Ag Ed grad (took lots of ag com classes because it was not a degree yet)
"The end goal is to create pieces of information and outreach that alert people on chemicals and the danger. If you see something that has a skull and cross bones on it, you will know what to do with it: stay away from it. It is creating those pieces that TDA can use for their advertising, plus Tech can use as well."
"He just wants it to create outreach: all the way from farm people to the ones that don't know anything about chemicals."
