Undergraduate information for CANVAS

Plan your time at CANVAS: take a sneak peek of upcoming events & activities

Undergraduate program orientation: join us

We encourage all students to join us Saturday evening to meet your 2026 National Officers, get a brief overview of the undergraduate activities happening at CANVAS 2026, and have a chance to ask questions about the upcoming week! Make the best of your CANVAS experience. 

National Officers: 2027 SASES candidates

Be part of the leadership of the SASES organization and guide the activities for the undergrad members in 2027.

All National Officer candidates completed submission of interest prior to CANVAS.

• Students of Agronomy, Soil, and Environmental Sciences closed candidacy submission. Information on Elections & Officer Duties.
• The SASES Business Meeting is followed by mandatory Club Delegate Training, where student representatives are trained on voting procedures. In the event that multiple self-nominations are received, a SASES primary election will take place at the conclusion of the training.
• Club Delegate – two representatives will represent their club by voting in officer elections. Plan and select delegates to represent your club.

Career development sessions for undergraduates

CANVAS offers numerous opportunities for undergrads to network with industry, Society professionals, and learn about future career opportunities. 

• Stay tuned for more information on options to explore! Your officer team, Undergraduate Advisory Committee, and Society staff are currently hard at work putting CANVAS together.  

What should I wear?

For most SASES events, be comfortable, consider repping your club’s logo wear. Tours are very casual! If you are giving a presentation, attending a professional event that day, or attending the SASES Awards Dinner, consider business casual attire. You never know when you’ll run into a potential employer! 

Check out the Student FAQs for more information on what to expect.

Finally…

Undergrads are encouraged to participate in professional sessions and workshops within the professional schedule – not just the SASES events! 

Consider attending other sessions while at the meeting – join your advisor or check out the program schedule to find events that may interest you.
