In September 2019 when the IAA was establishing its new Early Career Alumni Award a public health pandemic was a nebulous subject of medical thriller novels. Little did we know it would become a reality and put our alumni in essential and heroic roles. The IAA’s first-ever Early Career Alumni Award goes to Meg Smolinski, a 2016 graduate in Ornamental Horticulture, who put her skills to good use filling the campus food pantry, applying for funding, and helping those in need.
