Agriculture Dean Gordon M. Cairns Instruction in agriculture- at the University of Mary- land began over ninety years ago when the Maryland Agriculture (College, a private institution, first opened its doors to students. Since that time other imp4)rtant phases of v -ork have been established, including the Agriculture Experiment Station, the Extension Ser - ice, and regulatory and control work. All agricultural activities are closely coordinated within the depart- ment, between departments, and in the institution .is a whole. The four phases of work in agriculture enable the staff members to keep abreast of new developments in research as well as problems in the field. Thus the technical work in agriculture is correlated with the related sciences and cultural subjects. Some of the students trained in agriculture continue on in graduate study either at the University of Maryland or at some other institution. More modern facilities are being pro ided for stu- dent training. For example, during the past year a new swine barn has been constructed, and progress has been made on the new greenhouse units located near the heating plant. These facilities will provide an opportunity for broader and more effective work in the Animal Husbandry and Plant Science fields. Symons Hall

The antithesis of university life are numerous and interesting. The farmer from Pocomoke City meets the Frenchman from Paris. Students who listen to a Dixieland combo in the Grill on Wed- nesday night, on Thursday find themselves enjoying the Baltimore Symphony in the Coliseum. The couple who enjoys W. C. Fields movie at the Hyattsville are seen a week later with tickets to the U. T. Production oi Macbeth. The struggler in the quest who boasts a scant 2.0 finds he has History 6 with the 4.0 student. The poor boy meets the rich; the small town girl encounters the debutante. Many are the loves, many the memories that arise from life in a university. 23
