By Nathaly Dragoo | NCTA News Curtis, Neb. — At the Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture, mornings come early, and lessons are lived, not just learned. It’s a place where students turn ambition into action and dreams into careers that feed and serve their communities. For Luke Vandergriend of Adams, Nebraska, and Samantha Durre of Elgin, Nebraska, that dedication has earned them statewide recognition as recipients of the AKSARBEN Foundation Scholarship, an honor that celebrates not just academic success but the spirit of perseverance that defines every Aggie.
