The LLCC Ag department hosted 135 community college and university agriculture students from across Illinois on Friday, Feb. 19 for the Illinois Post-secondary Agriculture Student (PAS) Annual Conference. Students competed in a variety of events, such as career planning, equine specialist, or college bowl. New officers were also elected for the coming 2016-2017 school year.

15 LLCC students competed, with the Soil Specialist Team (pictured) taking first place. The winning team and advisor, Bill Harmon, will now move on to compete at the National PAS Conference in Kansas City, Mo. in March.
