ATHENS — There are more than 20,000 living alumni of the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences at the University of Georgia. Among them are U.S. representatives, renowned environmental scientists, governors, leaders of national corporations, and a host of successful agricultural producers, among leaders in many other professions.
Despite the differences in college experiences and career trajectories, for many of these alumni, there is one unifying individual in their memories of CAES: Josef Broder.
