Skaggs also assists in recruitment efforts for the College, coordinates the college scholarship program and student professional development activities, coordinates student internships with the San Antonio Livestock Exposition and is liasion with major livestock shows of Texas. He is a co-editor, with H. O. Kunkel, dean emeritus of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, of ""Revolutionizing Higher Education in Agriculture: Framework, Principles and Agenda for Action,"" a study of the colleges of agriculture, natural resources and life sciences in the United States.
Skaggs devotes a considerable amount of time to live animal evaluation. He has judged numerous national shows including the National Western, North American International, San Antonio Livestock Exposition and Houston Livestock Show beef cattle shows, and he works with youth at hundreds of youth shows across the country. He serves as superintendent of the intercollegiate livestock judging contest and the steer show at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, assistant superintendent of the 4-H/FFA livestock judging contest, beef cattle skillathon and steer show at the San Antonio Livestock Exposition and superintendent of the steer show at the State Fair of Texas.",Associate Vice Chancellor and Associate Dean||Professor||San Antonio Livestock Exposition Chair,College of Agriculture and Life Sciences||Animal Science||Animal Science,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n09d109d0
James,Sanders,Professor,"Dr. Sanders teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in animal breeding and conducts research in beef cattle genetics and breeding. His research has included systems analysis of beef cattle production, comparisons of cattle breeds for birth, growth, carcass and cow productivity traits, evaluation of genetic change within cattle breeds, evaluation of hybrid vigor retention in Bos indicus/Bos taurus crossbred cattle, identification of genes with major effects on birth, growth, carcass, disposition, and cow productivity traits in beef cattle, and genetic history of the Brahman breed.",Professor,Animal Science,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n0b98a027

Michael,Satterfield,Associate Professor,"Dr. Satterfield's research interests are focused on the long-term consequences of maternal nutrition on fetal and postnatal growth and development using sheep as his primary animal model. In addition, Dr. Satterfield studies the role of nutraceuticals in fetal brown adipose tissue development and the ability of offspring to regulate their core body temperature during periods of cold stress. His teaching interests include general reproductive and placental physiology as well as fetal growth and development.",Associate Professor,Animal Science,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n618951ae
