In honor of Dr. Ron Elliott, co-founder of the Oklahoma Mesonet, we invite you to support the Ron and Judith Elliott Endowed Scholarship in Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering at Oklahoma State University.

He received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in agricultural engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 1973 and 1974, respectively, and his doctorate in agricultural engineering from Colorado State University in 1981.

Dr. Elliott became a faculty member in 1981 and served as chair for the Department of Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering from 2001 to 2010. He served on the Mesonet Steering Committee until 2023. His leadership was instrumental in the creation and development of the network you know and love today.

Through this scholarship, he and his wife Judith continue to support the dreams of OSU students.

Loyal and True! Thank you!
