Robert G. Cassens, emeritus professor of meat and animal science (now animal sciences) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, has received the 2005 AMSA International Award. The award was established by the American Meat Science Association to honor an individual who has made internationally recognized contributions to meat science and technology, and who has promoted international activities in the field.

A team of dairy cattle judges from the University of Wisconsin-Madison took first place at the 37th All American Dairy Show Invitational Youth Dairy Cattle Judging Contest, Sept. 19 at Harrisburg, Pa. The Badger team placed 26 points ahead of 2nd place Virginia Tech, and was 1st in Holsteins, 2nd Brown Swiss, 2nd in Guernseys, and 4th in Linear Evaluation. Fourteen national university teams competed. This win marks the seventh time that the UW-Madison has won the All-American Collegiate Judging Contest, more wins than any other university.
