Extension Activities and their Relation to the College and the Experiment Station

Dairy Husbandry Department, State College, Pennsylvania

ABSTRACT

There appears to be a wide diversity in the relation of the extension service to the college of agriculture and the experiment station in different states throughout the union. In some institutions the authority is decentralized so that the duties of the dean of the college of agriculture, the director of the experiment station, and the director of the extension service are vested in as many different persons. Likewise supervision of the resident instruction and the experimental work in dairying is divorced to a considerable extent from that of the dairy extension activities, although in practically all cases the teaching of the extension work is expected to be in accord with that of the resident instruction.

In other states the authority is centralized and the dean of the college of agriculture is the director of the experiment station and also the director of the extension service. He may be assisted by a vice-dean of the college of agriculture, an assistant director of the experiment station and an assistant director of the extension service.
