Sixty-Sixth Annual Meeting of the American Dairy Science Association at Michigan State University, East Lansing June 20 to 23, 1971

Department of Animal Science Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14850

ABSTRACT

The Sixty-sixth Annual Meeting of the American Science Association was held for the fourth time in 44 years on the Spacious campus of Michigan State University. The first summer meeting at a land grant college was held there June 1927. The late Professor O. E. Reid and his staff hosted that meeting.

The stimulative, hospitable academic environment enjoyed by members at Michigan in 1927 and the opportunity to observe facilities and research progress at a sister institution, inspired Association officers to accept an invitation to hold the 1928 meeting at the University of Wisconsin. That institution was already famous as a research center. It was there that H. L. Russell, S. M. Babcock, and E. B. Hart had, early in this century, laid the foundations for fundamental research in dairy science and in animal and human nutrition. Thus, the tradition had begun—Association annual meetings were destined to be held in definitely at land grant universities.
