Ag Offers More Courses
Includes Efficiency Quality
The University's College of
Agriculture and Home Eco
nomics does not offer signi
ficantly more courses for un
dergraduates than were avail
able 30 years ago although
many courses are different.
But, at the graduate level,
there has been a great in
crease in the number of
courses offered over the same
period.
This situation was reported
by Dr. Franklin EJdridge, di
rector of resident instruction
at the College, as part of a
panel discussion by agricul
tural educators at the annual
convention of the American
Association of State Universi
ties and Land-Grant Colleges.
In discussing "proliferation
of courses," a problem often
mentioned in meetings of uni
versity curriculum experts,
Dr. Eldrldge noted that 85
agricultural courses were of
fered at the undergraduate
level in 1931-32, when the cur
rent course numbering sys
tem was initiated at NU, com
pared with 90 during the cur
rent academic year.
The courses available to
both graduates and under
graduates increased during
the same time from 43 to 78,
while courses at the graduate
level have increased from 49
to 71.
"This emphasizes the fact
that with respect to 'course
proliferation.' we need to con
trol or restrict courses at the
graduate level," the Nebras
ka director explained.
In the search for efficiency,
it often is necessary to alter
some university departmental
organization as well as or
ganization of courses, he con
tinued. As an example, he cited the
recent creation of the Depart
ment of Agricultural Educa
tion within the College of Ag
riculture and Home Econom
ics, a combination of the de
partments of Agricultural Ex
tension and Vocational Edu
cation. While the major in ag
ricultural and home econom
ics extension has been rela
tively successful and evalua
tion disclosed that many of
the most successful Extension
agents had training and ex
perience in teaching voca
tional agriculture, Dr. Eld
ridge said.
Arriving at the conclusion
that one department could
better serve the interests of
agricultural education in Ne
braska, officials decreased the
total number of courses of
fered, increased the size of the
department staff and broad
ened the scope of teaching.
Combining the two depart
ments also will result in clos
er cooperation in future years
between 4-H clubs and FFA
work throughout the state, Dr.
Eldridge predicted.
The chief concern of college
educators and administrators
should, be focused upon the
chat acteristics of their col
lege graduates, since these,
graduates are the end-product
of the educational processes."
However, while conceding
that consideration of the grad
uates as a group is "both
necessary and unavoidable,"
he stressed that the ultimate
concern still should be pointed
toward the individual grad
uate. "Our basic philosophy of
instruction should be directed
toward the development of the
individual ... our greatest
interest in efficiency should
be to assist the student to
Meeting Attracts
Three From NU
Three University officials
attended the annual meeting
of the Big Eight Registrars
and Business Officers Group
held recently at the Missouri
School of Mines and Metal

The three were John E.
Aronson, director of admis
sions, Theodore Pfeifer, sys
tem analyst, and Glen Sloan,
business officer.
The purpose of the meeting
was the discussion of mutual
problems of admissions, reg

Eleven universities from the
surrounding area and the Big

More than 60 laymen and

reach his education objectives
as rapidly as possible," the
Nebraskan said.
"As we move from a con
sideration of the individual's
needs toward the organization
of courses into majors, and
into graduation requirements,
we will find it necessary to
sacrifice some idealism, some
artistry, some individuality,
and some theory, but we do
not need to sacrifice quality,"
he declared.

"Quality and efficiency are
two concepts that cannot be
considered separately by the
educator.
"As we move toward better
use of student time, we should
find ourselves increasing the
quality of our educational pro
grams," Dr. Eldridge said.

"RAISING" CHILDREN DY THE BOOK
We have a choice in America ... a choice denied millions who live
under godless communism.
Here is a man who is exercising that choice!
He believes that children growing up in the free world ought to know
the Author of Liberty. He wants his son and daughter to cherish and.
embrace the spiritual insights God has given man.
This father introduced his children to the Bible
when they were very young. Today the Book of the
Ages is their friend. Tomorrow it will be their guide
through the frightening age to which they have
been born.
The American Bible Society supported by
earnest Christian citizens and the churches they
attend enables millions of families around the
globe to share our heritage of Truth with this new
generation on whose spiritual fibre rests the hope
of the world.
