COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE DEAN HAROLD E. MYERS The U of A College of Agriculture is one of the outstanding agriculture schools in the nation. Its modernized curriculum is designed to give students broad knowledge in agri- culture as well as special training in research, industry, business, education, communica- tions, conservation and farming and ranch- ing. The University has already gained recog- nition throughout the world for pre-eminence in many fields, including arid land research. The College of Agriculture includes four broad areas of instruction, on campus teach- ing, research at the agricultural experiment station, agricultural extension and the School of Home Economics. Students can use the Dairy Research Cen- ter, Poultry Research Center, Wininghan Farm, Campbell Avenue Farm for animal and plant research and the Plant Materials Cen- ter. In addition, there are special farms for research work. A vast amount of scientific information has been developed for both home economics and agriculture and forms the basis for the institutional program in both areas. Dr. Harold Myers, who has been dean of the college since 1956, supervises the edu- cation of students in Agriculture and Home Economics, as well as directing the State Extension Service and State Agricultural Ex- periment Station system. Dr. Myers served as assistant dean of Agriculture at Kansas State College before coming to Arizona. He studied at Kansas State, the University of Illinois and the Uni- versity of Missouri. Dean Myers has been honored by more than 20 professional groups and retained by governors and many national groups for professional advice.
