c~ ,q~IVI4le~ The College of Agriculture has long been rated as one of the top of its kind in the United States. With its new "million dollar home" in the Agricultural Science building, plus the recent Dairy Science building, the college is able to give Ag majors a well-rounded education. Provisions are made for a broad cultural education as well as the required specialized training in the agriculture field. Thirteen departments are included in the curricula, including Animal Husbandry, Dairy Husbandry , Horticulture, Poultry Husbandry, Veterinary Science and Agricultural Chemistry, Economics, Education, and Engineering. Each year the Aggies participate and "show off" their wares at the Little International presentation of fitting, showing, and various iudgings. The College of Agriculture and Agricultural Experiment Station also share as equipment: 740 acres of deeded land and 12 permanent buildings. In addition, the University owns or leases 800 acres located at five other points in the state for agricultural usage.
