Final Report of the Curriculum Committee

A committee, appointed in 1949 by President Becker and continued by Presidents Bendixen and Henderson, was asked to study the curricula for Dairy Manufacturing and Dairy Production as offered at the various agricultural colleges and to make recommendations as to desirable curricula and content of courses for these two fields at both the graduate and undergraduate level. The work was divided among the following subcommittees: I. Basic Sciences; II. Dairy Production Majors; III. Dairy Manufacturing Majors; IV. General Education, and V. Graduate Studies. Each subcommittee had as its chairman a member of the Curriculum Committee who chose his committee members. Each subcommittee was asked to suggest a list of required and recommended courses for a technical and a nontechnical curriculum for dairy manufacturing majors and for dairy production majors.

PROCEDURE

In 1949 a questionnaire was sent by the chairman to all the Land-Grant Colleges in the United States plus two other agricultural colleges and to seven Canadian universities teaching agriculture, a total of 57 institutions.
