Farm News: Former FFA Pres Tops Discussion Meet

comments

Posted: 12.05.2011

48 candidates from across Wisconsin wanted to be where he is - a winner.  Sunday, BJ Chrisler of Sauk Prairie was named the 2011 Discussion Meet winner at the 92nd annual WI Farm Bureau Federations annual meeting in WI Dells.

Chrisler, a former WI FFA President, is currently a student at UW-Madison where's he's involved in the states first collegiate Farm Bureau group.  Chrisler is currently a senior majoring in community and environmental sociology.  He'd like to go into public policy work and lobbying when he graduates - and apparently he's got the communication skills to do it.

The Discussion Meet is an exercise that develops cooperative problem solving in a public roundtable format.  It is a panel-type discussion where members are judged on their ability to express ideas and opinions on the hottest issues driving agriculture.

Chrisler was a national finalist in last year's Collegiate Discussion and will represent the state at the American Farm Bureau convention in January.
