Abstract:
During the Spring Quarter of 1969, the faculty in the Division of Agriculture at Tennessee Technological University, Cookeville, Tennessee, initiated a recruiting program among the area high schools aimed at the respective students enrolled in vocational agriculture. Developed by a committee of three faculty members, this program involved a visit to the high school to present talks and slides. The team of recruiters who traveled to the schools consisted of one faculty member, a Tennessee Tech agricultural student who graduated from the respective school visited, and a Tech agricultural alumnus located in the area. The objectives of the recruiting project were to interest high school students in higher education, to stimulate the student to come to Tennessee Tech, and to interest him in studying agriculture.
