History and Development of the Students' National Contest in the Judging of Dairy Products

Committee on the Judging of Dairy Products, A.D.S.A.

ABSTRACT

During the years which have intervened since the first intercollegiate students' dairy products judging contest held in 1916 in Springfield, Massachusetts, many records and data have been obtained regarding the dairy products judging contest, sponsored by the American Dairy Science Association.

Some of those data and records are herein assembled 1, that a permanent record of the more pertinent facts of the entire dairy products judging program may be had, and 2, that the changing personnel of coaches of dairy products judging teams and of dairy staff members may be informed concerning the development of dairy products judging.

To estimate the value of these students' national dairy products judging contests to the dairy industry is extremely difficult and, at best, figures would be only a matter of conjecture. Undoubtedly, the attainment of standards and ideals of perfection, both in the concrete and in the abstract, for butter, cheese, milk, and ice cream, have resulted from this contest, furnishing a clearing house of ideas and demonstrations to coaches and students alike.
