Virginia Tech Agriculture Club Buys Stocks for Education
At Virginia Tech the Agricultural Economics Club, formed by agricultural economics majors, started a student stock account with $500 donated by an anonymous agri business firm. They bought Alleghany Pepsi Cola and Pan American Sulphur shares, earning $147.03 on 51 shares in 83 days and facing price swings before holding for potential gains. The club operates democratically with ongoing investments and plans to expand activity, tying profits to scholarships and field trips.
