Abstract:

I am pleased to be with you today to discuss the image of agriculture and related implications for the U.S. food and agricultural sciences higher education system. While the topic is too complex to fully explore in a few minutes, I'd like to share with you some major issues that appear to be surfacing at the national level and, hopefully, suggest some alternatives for resolving these issues. We, who are trying to attract the best young minds in the Nation, are acutely aware of how important it is that these young men and women recognize the multiplicity of exciting scientific and professional career opportunities in agriculture.
