The Outlook Forum Student Diversity Program is an opportunity for students to learn about agribusiness, the latest research, future trends and policy in contemporary agriculture. Brown is president of the K-State chapter of Minorities in Agriculture, Natural Resources and Related Sciences and a member of K-State's Multicultural Student Honor Society.
