Morgan Walls

Walls stated, “Elkhart Coop supplies farmers and the surrounding communities with grain handling facilities, fertilizers, and fuel. I currently operate 12 locations in Southwest Kansas, the Oklahoma Panhandle, and Southeast Colorado.”

Walls grew up a few hours away from the panhandle area in Wiley, Colorado, but aware of the opportunity Panhandle State had to offer. It was the excellence compared to other four-year universities that made him enroll in classes. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree majoring in Agronomy in 2005.

Walls stated, “My favorite thing about OPSU was the small class sizes and the relationships with professors. This opportunity does not exist at larger Universities. You are a student as well as a person at OPSU, and not just another number in a class.”

“One favorite memory is when a group of the Ag students were recruited to help teach the Freshman orientation class.”, commented Walls.

Walls recently purchased a home with land in the Panhandle area for his family to be raised. He is the father of 3 boys, the oldest being four years old and two-year-old twins. According to his boys, when he is not working, he can be found spending time with family or checking cows.
