WCCA Activities

The Wyoming Collegiate Cattle Association (WCCA) provides students with opportunities to learn, connect, and get involved in the cattle industry through a variety of educational, professional, and social activities. Throughout the year, members participate in industry tours and hear from guest speakers who provide insight into different areas of the cattle industry and career opportunities. WCCA also attends the NCBA Cattle Industry Convention, giving students the opportunity to learn about current industry topics and connect with cattle industry professionals from across the country.

In addition to educational experiences, WCCA participates in campus traditions and events such as the Homecoming Parade and Ag Day BBQ. The organization also hosts an end-of-the-year gala to celebrate members and the year's accomplishments. Fundraising activities and community service projects provide members with opportunities to support the organization while giving back to the community. These activities allow WCCA members to build industry knowledge, professional connections, friendships, and leadership experience while becoming more involved in the cattle industry.
