UD Freshman Wins
National FFA Award
NEWARK, Del. - James
Baxter, an engineering technolo
gy major at the University of
Delaware, has won second place
in the FFA’s National Career
Development Event in
Louisville, Ky.
Baxter’s award, which he
shared with Asher McClung, a
freshman at Delaware Technical
Community College in
Georgetown, was in recognition
for his work in developing corn
ethanol as an alternative to
gasoline.
Baxter said he has been
interested in this topic since he
was in the 9th grade at Sussex
Central High School, where
teacher Robert Lawson served
as his FFA adviser.
I’ve been researching alterna
tive fuels for a long time,” said
Baxter. “Two years ago I got to
the state competition with this. I
didn’t win first place, however,
so I was allowed to do it again.”
This time Baxter partnered
with McClung. Together, they
polished up their act, winning
first at the state level, which
launched the pair into the
national competition.
Baxter said he grew up on a

farm in Georgetown that has
been in the family for four gen
erations. His family farms 2,000
acres of land and grows 400,000
broilers a year
Deciding to go to UD was
easy, said Baxter.
“I looked around at other
schools, but my family all
attended UD, so I decided to
come here too,” he said. Baxter
noted that his grandfather
James Baxter, mom and dad -
Suzanne Marvel and James
Baxter - and his Uncle Bill
Baxter all hail from UD, as does
sister Kristy, ‘9B, an agricultural
soil science major, and Katy, ‘95,
an agricultural business major.
Baxter expects to continue
working with corn ethanol as a
replacement for gasoline and
said Dr. James Glancey, associ
ate professor of bioresources
engineering, has been giving
him suggestions. Baxter hopes
to perfect the process so he can
actually run an engine with it
one day.
Baxter’s long-term goals?
That’s easy, too.
“I hope to go back to my fam
ily farm to carry on with the
fifth generation, God willing.”
