Haywood Community College fish and wildlife management technology students Parker Grandy and Andrew Jones have won the 2019 Dave Dudek Wildlife Award from the HCC Student Chapter of The Wildlife Society.
The award, which comes with a scholarship, is named for the chapter’s founding advisor, who is also a retired fish and wildlife instructor. It’s presented to two fish and wildlife students due to graduate the following spring and recognizes leadership, scholarship and dedication to the profession.
Grandy plans to pursue a bachelor’s and then a master’s degree at the University of Georgia. Jones also plans to earn a bachelor’s degree in wildlife biology and a master’s degree in marine biology.
