Abstract:
In order to consider recruitment of high school students for your agriculture programs, it is important to reflect on your own experiences, which got you here and involved you in trying to teach students about agriculture at the college level. It is also important to reflect on what these root experiences have led you to imagine and to expect those high school students to be. Simply wanting to be a farmer when I was growing up is a far different expectation than the one I can see my high school students heading towards or moving away from.
