Abstract:

Teachers of the basic subjects which are preparatory to training in any chosen field know that they would do much better if their practical colleagues and others supported them instead of constantly subjecting them to pressures for applications, in modern parlance "relevance." On the other hand, teachers of Agriculture, the oldest practical subject on the campus other than the ancient triad of theology, law, and medicine, continually stub their toes on schedules, rules, curricula, committees, debates, and the like which originate with teachers of basic subjects, the idealists, academicians, theorists, inmates of the ivory tower.

 

Keywords:
