5s m H w m Long Hall, where dirt farming becomes a specialized science. THE SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE . . . that the Parmer miakt k now The historically rich School of Agriculture, largest and one of the most progres- sive at Clemson, is one of the outstanding of its type in the South. Under the capable direction of Dr. H. P. Cooper it, along with the Extension Service and the Experiment Station, is advancing South Carolina agriculture in rapid strides. The new freshman must, of course, meet the requirements of the basic freshman curricular including English, math, chemistry and the required agriculture courses of Zoo under Frog Ware and Botany with Mr. Rutledge before he can even begin to specialize in one of the many majors available. When the student is a sophomore he has a chance to become familiar with his future. Here he encounters farm machinery under Happy Joe Richardson, Hort with Mr. Senn or Mr. Sefick, and, of course, Soils , courtesy of Lord Collins. The Junior has usually completed all his preliminary work and can spend his efforts in his chosen field. He is apt to find himself studying Ag Economics with Dr. Aull or Agronomy, again under The Lord , or perhaps Animal Husbandry with Chief Starkey. Big Ben Goodale or Mr. LaMaster will supervise the junior in Dairying, and Mr. Nutt in Ag Engineering. The candidate for graduation has still to complete the necessary elective and required credits for his diploma, and when this requirement is met the graduate can feel confident that he has had the best training from one of the best schools in the nation. Dr. H. P. Cooper is not only the dean of the School of Agriculture, but also heads the Experi- ment Station. 1! I a • io ii £f I 15 IS 17 14 ■ 22 23 24 29 ■ I a 1 1 ■ ■ 2 29 . • ■ 7 i 1 ■ri . .
