Today's graduates embody a powerful blend of vision, passion, and determination, holding boundless promise for their future, and I feel fortunate to have worked alongside them. Congratulations, @dickinsonstate class of โ26 ๐พ๐๐๐
After a solid academic year, I take a bow from this prestigious institution with gratitude, while looking forward to continued collaborations, possible exchange programs, guest lectures, and lifelong connections. Thank you, DSU Ag & Tech, for also pulling off a surprise farewell.
Saying goodbye is hard!
On August 12, 2025, I drove down to North Dakota to resume my first job as an Assistant Professor of Agriculture at Dickinson State University. DSU took a chance on me, and as you might tell, it has been a journey.
I (& my Major Advisor, Jeremy S Cowan) drove down with a U-Haul, my car hitched behind it, and a heart full of HOPE. DSU gave me an amazing boss- Dr. Poland, exceptional colleagues-Danielle, Jarri, Ms. Tracieโฆ-, and outstanding students. We learned, grew, and built together.
๐ Exciting updates at Dickinson State! Just toured our newly remodeled $25M Agriculture & Rodeo facilities with @NDFarmersUnion. Students move into the Ag building next week โ canโt wait! ๐ #HawkAreUp#DickinsonState

Aloha!
I had the privilege of attending the annual conference of ASHS in Hawaii this past week. During the event, I presented my intercropped research. It was filled with incredible presentations while enjoying the beautiful Hawaiian weather.
Earlier this week, I had the opportunity to speak at the @EducationUSALag Predeparture Orientation for Fall '24 Nigerian students on the topics of "Safety on USA College Campuses" and "Leveraging Relationships."
I wish you well.
Good luck, folks!
This is too sad ๐. Over $60,000,000.00 for Hajj, in a country where abject poverty and extreme hunger is endemic ๐ค. Hajj should be an individual thing.
@ZainAsher very good presentation today. It showed you love and probably missing those Nigerian delicacies you mentioned: jollof rice, gari, soya โฆ
Iโm your fan ๐๐ฝ๐ช
