Our university’s rich heritage and diverse scholarly pursuits include a commitment to supporting the intellectual activities of academically talented students. We are especially proud of achievements in making a profound impact within the energy industry and its related fields, with outstanding input by minority and women students. Each year, we pause to celebrate the successes realized through this trailblazing academic and mentoring program that provides opportunities for some of the nation’s best and brightest science, technology, engineering, and mathematics scholars. I am grateful to CDEP faculty and staff and their supporters, who continue to enable students to realize their dreams, which is at the heart of what we Dream and Do daily at Fort Valley State University. Special plaudits are extended to CDEP’s founder, Dr. Isaac Crumbly, who in 1983 recognized the need to introduce the nation’s energy leaders to the intellectual vitality of FVSU’s student scholars and provide opportunities for student engagement and internship opportunities. This program has grown and expanded over the years to include other universities seeking to realize similar goals. These include the University of Nevada, Las Vegas; Georgia Institute of Technology, University of Texas-Austin, University of Arkansas, Pennsylvania State University, and the University of Texas-Pan American. Now, through these partnerships, our students are able to enjoy a dual-degree component, which enables them to earn two bachelor’s degrees: one from a science-related field at FVSU, and one from an energy-related field from a partner school. Finally, let me thank and congratulate the individuals, companies, agencies, and foundations for providing ongoing support to
