SDSU's Kephart Co-Chair Natl Committee

[JackJD]

I saw this in today's Rapid City Journal but the Journal cites the Brookings Register:

BROOKINGS | A South Dakota State University official has been named to a national biomass research committee.

The Brookings Register (http://bit.ly/12dIYNS) reports that Kevin Kephart was recently appointed to co-chair the Biomass Research and Development Initiative Technical Advisory Committee. The committee assists the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Department of Energy.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Department of Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz appointed Kephart, vice president for research at SDSU, to co-chair the committee in May. Kephart has served on the committee since May 2011.

Former Mississippi Gov. Ronnie Musgrove serves as the other committee co-chair.

This could up the total research dollars at SDSU. Depending on research dollars that Mr. Kephart will have a voice or even control.

Surprised Lakejack did not start this thread.
