(upbeat music)
- Shoot.
- Extension and Outreach, mm...
- What happens when your
answers just are gone?
- I work for Extension
Outreach because I love
being in the community
trying to make a difference
in the place I live and work.
- Because I believe in the mission.
- I want to make a difference
in the state of Iowa.
- Because it's awesome
and I like helping people.
- 'Cause I love working with volunteers
and I like impacting our communities.
- Is that our last question?
Are we getting close?
- I love that I get to go into an office
and work with people
that I enjoy working with
and serving a community that I love.
- I love the variety and the
meaning that it provides,
not only to myself but others.
- I get to help save lives and add profit
to my farmers and food manufacturers.
- You get great conversations.
You get great experiences
working with various Iowans.
- I love helping people.
- I don't remember what I said.
- Uh...
- Extension and Outreach
helps feed and fuel the world.
- Gloriously messy is what
makes me prideful in Extension.
It's like saying that you're allowed
to make mistakes but you're able to learn
from those mistakes and
make yourself better.
- Working towards a better future
for us and the next generation.
- We create a gateway for
people all over the world
to connect with Iowa State University.
- One word I feel embodies
Extension and Outreach is family.
- Pioneers.
- Legacy.
- Serving.
- Pride.
- Commitment.
- Empowerment.
- People.
- Community.
- Resource.
- Inspiration.
- Caring.
- Partnership.
- Fantastic.
- Trustworthy.
- Imperative.
- (laughs) These questions are tough.
I forgot about that one.
- It should not be this hard (laughs).
- Extension and Outreach, to
me, means life-long learning.
- Exciting change.
- Bringing in research-based information
that's unbiased to allow them
to make better decisions.
- We share our expertise and innovation
to enhance the lives of Iowans.
- We need to be the leading source
for cutting edge, credible information.
- To me, Extension and Outreach
is the opportunity to
work with people in Iowa
and across the world to
improve their livelihood.
- Is this the last one finally?
- Ooh, that one I missed reading.
- I hope that we can expand our knowledge
of culture and lead the way in Iowa
for drawing upon diversity as a strength.
- I hope that our people continue
to be proud of what they do,
that they are supported in a way
that they could do their job effectively
and that they're valued and appreciated
by the people they work with.
- My goal is to really
get at the heart of people
and what they need and to have them
have some sense of fulfillment.
- My hope is that Extension will be here
not only for the next generation,
but the generation after that.
- I can tell you what I don't want
way quicker than I can
tell you what I do want.
I don't want everything to be,
like, web-based programming.
- Because I think that it's important
to have real interactions in
real time with real Iowans.
- We are committed to be good
stewards of our communities.
- We are all about
education and opportunities.
- We are building strong communities
for all of us for generations to come.
- We are changing Iowans' lives.
- We are service.
- We are revolutionary.
- We are providing complex
engineering solutions to Iowans.
- We are empowering families
to be healthier Iowans.
- We are creating opportunities
and transforming lives.
- We are essential to Iowans.
- We are Iowa State University
Extension and Outreach.
- We are Iowa State University
Extension and Outreach.
- We are--
- We are--
- We are--
- We are Iowa State University
Extension and Outreach.
