Fox News reported yesterday that Ann Miron, an agricultural education major, has been named the 54th Princess Kay of the Milky Way for the Minnesota State Fair. As part of her duties, Ann will serve as the official ambassador for the Minnesota dairy industry. She will also spend about eight hours having her likeness carved out of a 90-pound block of butter. Congratulations Ann!
