Symposium: International Interests and Activities of the American Dairy Science Association

Role of the Journal of Dairy Science

Department of Food Science, University of Illinois, Urbana

ABSTRACT

The American Dairy Science Association is fifty-eight years old, and is one of the oldest learned societies in the United States. The Journal of Dairy Science is one of the oldest publications in the world. In his presidential address at the eighth annual meeting of the Dairy Instructor's Association in 1913, Professor J. H. Frandsen urged the formation of a journal devoted entirely to dairy science. At the annual meeting in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1916, the Executive Board of the Association authorized the appointment of an editor-in-chief for a bimonthly journal. The first issue of the Journal of Dairy Science appeared in March 1918 with J. H. Frandsen as editor-in-chief. Trout (1) stated in his survey of the Association, that the Journal ranked first as the most important single factor in dairy science education. Five thousand members and subscribers in 65 nations receive the Journal.

DEVELOPING NATIONS NEED HELP

We are concerned in this symposium with extending the image and service of our Association and of the Journal to areas where both can be most helpful.
