The East Tennessee Pest Control Association and its members presented the University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture’s Department of Entomology with a pair of $25,000 scholarships.
The scholarships were named in honor of Dr. Karen Vail, whose research was recently acknowledged by the Entomological Society of America-Southeastern Branch through its “Distinguished Award in Urban Entomology.” The scholarship donations were announced last week at the annual Smoky Mountain Pest Management Conference in Pigeon Forge, Tenn.
