Otto Frederick Hunziker Memorial

The University community, the Dairy Industry, the nation and the world, mourn the passing of O. F. HUNZIKER on Sunday, November 16, 1959, at the age of eighty-five. He served the Dairy Industry well as a scientist and factory consultant.

He was born in Zurich, Switzerland, on December 25, 1873, the son of Karl Otto and Louise Hunziker. The father was originally a minister and later, professor of education and pedagogy at the University of Zurich. The childhood days of the two brothers and two sisters were spent in Goldbach, a small town O. F. Hunziker near Zurich. Otto graduated from the Agricultural College nearby when he was 19 yr. old. His longing to go to the United States was fulfilled when he settled on a dairy farm near Attleboro, Massachusetts, in 1893.

Realizing his handicap with the English language and longing for business training, he attended a business college at Providence, Rhode Island, and graduated in 1896.
