- The Agricultural Economics Club promotes professional and social interactions between students and Agricultural Economics faculty. Most members are Agricultural Economics majors, but any undergraduate may join. The Club meets twice a month and has dues of $7 per semester or $10 per year. Some of our activities include guest speakers, social activities (bowling, BBQ, softball, etc.), American Agriculture Economics Association annual meeting, and our annual Fall Trip (past trips have included Chicago, Moline, St. Louis, etc.)
