Iowa State had eight student foresters representing her at the 1976 National Convention of the Society of American Foresters. Making the trip to New Orleans for the October 4-6 sessions were four Hartman-Montgomery Travel Award winners: Teresa McCoy, Keith Walton, Bob Meier, and Joel Tuhy. Four other students attended on their own: Mary Blenkush, Carla Derby, Dwight Lundquist, and Ray Dirksen.
