UNL is a non-discriminatory institution SOO&tile Campus n 11 11 - Since the university acquired the Agricultural Research and Development Center at Mead in 1962, it has under gone many changes. Starting with a worn-out army com plex, the Mead center was involved only with non-surplus-producing crops. The center, then owned by the univer sity, was far from adequate for assisting th agricultural science program on East Campus. Last week marked the center's 25th anniversary. Richard McManaman, manager of agricultural research at Mead, said that since then, several additions have been made to make the center one of. the top agricultural research centers in the nation. Over the last 25 years, McManaman said, the center has added a swine complex, a cattle, beef cow and calf herd; and a dairy, and devised a more efficient use of its 9,600 acres for the study of crops. The center, he said, is now used by all of NU's agricultural sciences, in cluding animal science, nutrition and health, agricultural meteorology and the forestry department. "It's an extension of East Campus, said Warren Sahs, superintendent of the center. The expansion and devel opment of the center has changed the philosophy of the scientists, adminis trators and students at Mead, he said. One addition that has gained the Mead center nationwide recognition is the addition of a rhizotron, an under ground building used to study the development and erosion of roots and soil. The roots and soil are encased in glass so the researchers can monitor the development from germination. The Mead center has one of five rhizotrons in use in the United States. Two capital construction projects a main headquarters and a public-events center, already have been approved by the Board of Regents. Sahs said money for the center will come from private and public donations. Preliminary con struction bidding should begin in two years. Sahs said that as technology in creases, so will the capabilities of the Mead center. Career Corner CAREER CORNER from Page 5 Pizza Hut, April 20; all majors for management trainee positions.
