The award is a meaningful tradition among AAPL's accredited undergraduate programs and highlights the impact graduates will have on the industry. To be selected, Goin submitted an essay and was interviewed by board members. 'Post UTPB, I tell people, God willing, I'll be in the Permian Basin for the next 60 years. I'll be here for as long as I can, managing surface and minerals, and just giving back to the community and watching it grow. There's a lot of great things happening out here, and that's a nice thing about being an energy land management student, is we are involved in the community and giving back,' said Goin.
