Gov. @KimReynoldsIA hits it out of the park again! At her press conference today she was asked about changes to Iowa's mask mandate.
You are gonna want to hear her answer! Thoughts? Do you agree? #iagov#iapolitics
Something that has been eating at my mind all day is that there was no moment of silence or even mention of 9/11 in today’s issue of the ISU Daily, in class, or from university administration. The priorities of the university system and world need to be rearranged. #NeverForget
The logic of some people these days. It is safer for us to stay on campus than to be sent home to parents, grandparents and community members. The logic of bringing students here, having an increase in positive tests in Ames and now wanting to send us home baffles me.
In response to the ISU bill about students remaining on campus/going home:
Do you seriously think it’s better to go home and infect thousands of communities across the nation packed full of high-risk individuals to salvage the high test rates of a CONTROLLED POPULATION in Ames?

Pork is always on the menu when there are a countless number of ideas on how to prepare it! Just remember to cook the pork to 145*F and you will have a delicious juicy pork dish! #RealPigFarming
Your daily fun pig fact has to do with just how smart pigs really are. In fact, their intelligence is higher than a dog's, some primates, young children, and I'd also argue higher than some college students as well! #RealPigFarming
Today in Swine Science, the class I'm a TA for, was the Pork Cookery Lab. Students are put into teams and come up with a unique pork dish. Some of the dishes we had in the first lab included pulled pork spaghetti, bacon breakfast pizza, pork carnitas and more! #RealPigFarming
The Beagle Brigade and agriculture inspectors at our borders are key in keeping foreign animal disease out of this country and protecting the swine industry from African Swine Fever. Not to mention how cute Beagles are in general! #RealPigFarming
Thank you, @RepDavidRouzer for recognizing the need for CBP agricultural inspectors and co-sponsoring bill HR 4482, which authorizes more inspectors & canine teams to address the current shortage. Inspectors are essential for protecting U.S. agriculture from FADs, including ASF.
Did you know that each market hog today has roughly 371 serving of healthy pork? In fact, pork is even 75% leaner than it was 50 years ago. #RealPigFarming
The phrase “living high on the hog” originated among army enlisted men referring to the top loin cuts that officers received while the enlisted received shoulder and ham cuts. #RealPigFarming
A three ounce serving of pork contains oner 23 grams of protein! Pork serves as an excellent option for your daily protein all while being wallet friendly. #RealPigFarming
