Monsanto donates $1 million to Iowa State University

At 5:00 pm today a very exciting announcement was made inside of the Iowa State University tent. Monsanto has donated $1 million to Iowa State University for renovations of Curtiss Hall. And anyone who has been in Curtiss Hall recently will welcome the renovations. Trust me, as an Ag Ed major, I have been in there plenty enough to know the significance of this donation.

Remodeling will begin in 2009 and will reshape the atrium on the ground floor wing of the building, creating a mall-type atmosphere for all student ag services.


"Currently, students have to trek all over for student services. Now, they will all be located together including career services, ag study abroad, and various other programs making it more convenient for students and staff all together," said Mike Gaul, Iowa State University Career Services.
