The Curriculum of the First Two Years in Animal Husbandry

University of Wisconsin

Abstract

During recent years in more than one of our agricultural colleges there has been considerable discussion as to equipping students for more varied occupations, including farming, after leaving school. In trying to set up as near ideal a curriculum as possible, a considerable variety of courses has seemed desirable so that the graduate might feel as much at home as possible in the particular field in which presumably he would find his life work.

Some of us have wondered how frequently or how consistently graduates of one of the agricultural courses or, for that matter, a great many other courses, will find themselves situated in the more or less narrow field toward which they had pointed their college training. As I look back upon my own career during college and since leaving college, I marvel at times that I have actually landed in the field in which I made an effort to train myself, for there have been a number of possibilities of switching into other related fields.
