Richard H. and Peggy A. Daluge AGR Scholarship

Rick and Peggy Daluge are strong supporters of the UW-Madison, the agricultural industry and the Wisconsin 4-H Foundation and models of the service that embodies it.

The Daluges are past Wisconsin 4-H Foundation Board members who have been involved as donors and buyers at the Governor’s Blue Ribbon Meat Products Auction at State Fair since its inception 25 years ago. Rick served on the State Fair Ag Advisory Board where he ensured a positive experience for participants and always advocated for 4-H. Both served on the Dane County 4-H Leaders Board while their children were 4-H members.

Peggy is a Fond du Lac County 4-Her who focused on dairy judging and showmanship. She was the 1967 Wisconsin Holstein Girl. Peggy was the first female to graduate from the UW-Madison Dairy Department with a bachelor’s degree in 1970. She sat on the Dane County Fair Board and served twice as the Dane County interim 4-H agent.

Rick has earned multiple degrees from UW-Madison to include a BS in Agricultural Education in 1971, a MS in Continuing & Vocational Education in 1975 and a PhD in Continuing & Vocational Education in 1982. Rick was a Buffalo County 4-H agent upon graduation from college. He later served as assistant dean for Agricultural and Life Sciences at UW-Madison for 36 years and director of the Ag Short Course for 25 years. He has served on the board of the Wisconsin Agricultural and Life Sciences Alumni Association (WALSAA), the board of the Wisconsin Rural Leadership Program, the Wisconsin FFA Sponsors Bard, and as an advisor for the Alpha Gamma Rho (AGR) fraternity.
