Dedication

Heinrich Fenner

It is quite appropriate that a yearbook dedi-
cation be presented to a person who exemplifies
"dedication." A good professor is one who at-
tracts the interest of the students to a subject
simply by his own attitude towards it. It is ob-
vious Doctor Fenner is proud to be a professor.
With this dedication, the Stosag staff would like
to thank Doctor Fenner for his contribution to
Stockbridge.

Born in Arolsen, Germany, Heinrich Fenner
studied at the University of Hohemheim, Ger-
many, and here at the University of Massa-
chusetts.

His first appointment at the University was as
research instructor in 1956. Presently, he is an
Associate Professor of Veterinary and Animal
Sciences primarily teaching the fundamental
principles of animal nutrition applied to the
feeding and management of various classes of

livestock.

Doctor Fenner has been a member of a num-
ber of professional and honorary societies among
which are the American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Sciences and the American Insti-
tute of the Biological Sciences. He is currently
doing research on the nutrition of the ruminant
and monogastric herbivore with special interest
in the biochemistry and physiology of digestion.

Aside from his many professional duties. Doc-
tor Fenner has been actively involved with his
students, offering assistance when he can. He
has given time as STOSO advisor and has al-
ways engaged whole-heartedly in its functions.
He is presently involved with the Peace Corps
volunteer program in the Amherst area. It is our
privilege to dedicate this yearbook to such an
outstanding professor and person as Heinrich
Fenner.

TO THE CLASS OF 1973

You are a "special class," especially to me for you entered as freshmen in
1971, the same year I became the new director. Together, we have managed
to complete the many requirements set before us. I have learned a great
many new things and I sincerely hope that you all have also.

You have been going to college in an era when higher education is being
questioned and tested from all sides. It is also an era when a two-year con-
centrated, technical education is finally beginning to receive the respect it
should have had over the past years. Much of this respect has been earned
by the many highly qualified para-professionals graduated from the Stock-
bridge School of Agriculture.

I know that you are all very much aware of the challenges awaiting you
out there in the "cold, cruel world!" I also believe that you are very well
trained to cope with those challenges and will constantly seek progressive
changes in our business and social systems.

So, to you of the "Special" Class of 1973, I congratulate you as graduates
and wish you all the best in building a happy, productive and rewarding
future.

Majors

Agricultural Business Management

The two-year program in Agricultural Business Manage-
ment leads to management opportunities in agriculturally-
oriented companies. In addition to departmental courses,
students may elect up to 21 credit hours from courses offered
by other departments. The student may acquire intensive
training in one technical field or a more general training in
several fields. Graduates of this program, depending upon
their choice of electives, would find employment opportunities
leading to management positions with agricultural business
firms.

38

The program of studies in the Animal Sciences is one of the oldest
options in the Stockbridge School of Agriculture. The curriculum has
undergone constant evolutionary and progressive changes over the years
and is currently organized to prepare students for satisfying careers
in the scientific and technical aspects of the animal, dairy and poultry
industries.

The course offering in these curricula include the principles of selec-
tive breeding, feeding, management and disease control for the various
classes of livestock, poultry and laboratory animals. This knowledge
and technology is applied by graduates for the development and pro-
duction of more efficient animals and poultry and more acceptable, nu-
tritious and useful animal products.

In addition to the major course offering within the Department of
Veterinary and Animal Sciences, graduates complete appropriate sup-
porting work in Agriculture and Food Economics, Agricultural Engi-
neering, Plant and Soil Science, Microbiology and Communication.
Many students have completed the course of study in Animal Science
over the years and many graduates from this program hold positions of
leadership in the Animal Industries of the Commonwealth and nation.

In 1895, the University offered the first course in the United States
on shade trees and now offers one of the few complete two year
courses in arboriculture. It entails the care of shade and ornamental
trees. Citizens realize the necessity of trees in their communities and
are becoming more important in their lives.

There are unlimited job opportunities in aboriculture. Careers on
municipal, county, state and national levels are open to graduates as
tree wardens or as tree care specialists for parks, highways, college
campuses or public institutions.

Environmental Technology

The Environmental Technician Training Program was ini-
tiated in response to agriculture's recognition of the growing
need for an adequate staff to control water pollution. Stu-
dents at Stockbridge are prepared with a very diverse cur-
riculum as well as a large amount of on-the-job training. This
year's program included a great deal of technical experience
at Green River. The graduate of this program is well qualified
for a variety of employment opportunities such as public
health engineering aide, sanitary engineering technician and
technician for municipal, federal or state pollution control
commissions.

41

Floriculture

Floriculture graduates are smiling as usual be-
cause of the excellent job market or in anticipation
of extending their education. This year, whole-
saling and retailing job opportunities seem to be
greater than in the production aspect of the Flori-
culture industry. Flower designers and shop man-
agers are desperately needed, while the number of
production firms have decreased. The foliage plant
field is exploding and thus requiring trained per-
sonnel in production, retailing and maintenance of
established plantings. These are some of the reasons
why the Floriculture student can expect many job
opportunities in an ever demanding industry.

In Massachusetts the fruit and vegetable
crop industries are major horticultural pro-
duction and marketing enterprises. The courses
offered emphasize the basic principles of plant
growth which underlie sound cultural practices
and the economic factors which bear upon
marketing procedures. Graduates in this major
may become skilled farm workers, foremen,
operators or owners of fruit and vegetable
farms.

Fruit and Vegetable Crops

The Food Distribution curriculum provides stu-
dents with a background in business management
and the food sciences appropriate for positions in
Food Distribution firms. Graduates may elect to
work towards specialized areas such as personnel,
advertising, labor relations, training, etc. The train-
ing received is also basic to positions with business
firms in other phases of food distribution that re-
quire a thorough understanding of food retailing,
including work with food wholesalers, food brokers,
food manufacturers and equipment suppliers.

Food Distribution

Food Processing Technology

Meeting the food needs of 200 million people in the United
States and of 3.5 billion people in the world is a monumental
task. Even interplanetary travel is demanding its own pe-
culiar food forms.

Answering this need is the far-flung food processing indus-
try with its huge productive capacity and its research and
development teams. To keep the industry operating and to
allow it to become innovative, there is a great need for a
back-up force of technicians — people who can operate instru-
ments, perform tests, devise control programs, operate proc-
essing and packaging equipment, supervise plant operations,
make plant inspections and provide sales and services for this
highly technical industry. This is the purpose of the Food
Processing Technology course. Students enrolled in the course
are confronted with a continuing challenge because food is the
focus of man's quest for survival.

44

The present Department of Hotel, Restaurant and Travel Administration
evolved from a food management program introduced into the University of
Massachusetts curriculum in 1938. It now includes a two-year curriculum, a
four-year curriculum and an off-campus extension program.

The Stockbridge two-year program emphasizes technology and is designed
to develop students for supervisory and management positions in restaurants,
hotels, clubs and institutional food services. Case studies, field trips, and
visits by guest lecturers from the industry supplement the classroom instruc-
tion. The required curriculum includes nutrition, quantity food production,
restaurant and hotel operations, economics, accounting, merchandising and
personnel administration.

Graduates hold positions with firms in such areas as college and university
feeding, state school food service systems, motels, hotels and other hospi-
tality and travel firms.

A relatively new major program, "Lab Tech" originated in
1966 to meet the growing need for professionally trained techni-
cians to aid researchers, veterinarians and others in the care,
management, breeding, etc. of animals, particularly the smaller
species. At the same time, the program helps to meet the desires
of the growing number of students who want to work with ani-
mals, but find that opportunities in the traditional livestock en-
terprises are limited. Many courses are shared with Animal
Science, but others (such as lab animal management, clinical
techniques, parasitology, anesthesiology and pharmacology, etc.)
are particularly designed for the laboratory side of the animal
industry. Increasing interest in this field on the part of the
students has driven up enrollment from a planned 10-15 per year
to 20-30, and perhaps more.

Landscape Operations deals primarily in preserving the natu-
ral beauty on both public and private grounds. There is a never
ending demand for men who are trained to handle landscape
construction and maintenance. The department offers courses
in surveying, drafting, soil management, identification of plants
and their uses, these being only a small portion of the total ex-
perience students receive while at Stockbridge.

Positions upon graduation are readily available in public
parks, as botanical gardeners and as foremen with landscape or
real estate contractors.

Landscape Operations

47

In 1926, Turf Management was first started in Stockbridge
School of Agriculture as a ten week course offering. It was
introduced into the curriculum as a major in 1946. Since then,
the demands in the turf industries have grown by leaps and
bounds, and today, Turf Management can boast of being one
of the largest agricultural enterprises in the state.

As there has been an increased concern for the maintenance
of highways, parks, golf courses and homes, there has also
been an increased demand for skilled supervisors and super-
intendents.

Some of the course offerings of the Turf Management major
include Entomology, Plant Pathology, Plant Nutrition, Ma-
chinery and Drainage, each carefully chosen for their close
alliance to the problems of turf management and general es-
tate work. Although this major has a curriculum that slants
to the preparation of the student planning a career specializ-
ing in golf courses, graduates are well qualified to continue in
a career in Landscape Architecture, cemetery or park main-
tenance.

Animal Science Club

The Animal Science Club is open to all
students interested in any of the Animal
Sciences. Its aim is to acquaint the stu-
dents with different professionals in the
Veterinary Sciences, each of whom repre-
sent a specific field of Agriculture. Mem-
bers get a first hand view of the work of
these professionals, which can help them
in choosing a career that they are inter-
ested in.

The club program consists of lectures,
movies and field trips, with topics ranging
anywhere from dogs to cattle.

87

Arboriculture and Park
Management Club

The "Arbor and Park" Club is open to both
freshmen and senior classes and enables stu-
dents to become familiar with different as-
pects of Arboriculture other than what is
taught in the classroom. The club provides
speakers representing a variety of professions,
helping the members in choosing careers. Stu-
dents become better acquainted through the
club's social activities, such as the Arbor-Park
Club Christmas party at Hatfield Barn.

88

Environmental Technology Club

The Environmental Tech Club was organ-
ized to offer a wider interest than what a lim-
ited classroom structure provides. The club is
an opportunity for students to become exposed
to the ever increasing range of occupations
opened up by Environmental Technology. It is
also an opportunity for students to learn to-
gether on an informal basis. Special projects in
water pollution control have been successfully
undertaken by the members.

89

Floriculture Club

The Floriculture Club is a self sustaining
club mainly made up of members with an in-
terest in commercial floriculture. This year,
besides having a good time, the members were
able to develop certain fundamental techniques
through active participation in projects such as
the arranging and selling of corsages at the
Homecoming game. The "Flori" club also is
responsible for the Christmas open house in
French Hall where the talents of the members
are displayed in their work with wreaths and
centerpieces. Through its work, the club has
been able to raise enough money to present a
scholarship at the end of the year to a worthy
Floriculture freshman or transferring senior.

90

Landscape Operations Club

The objective of the "Land Op" Club is to pro-
vide a social atmosphere as well as give an opportu-
nity for the students and other interested persons to
obtain some knowledge of the different jobs that the
landscaping field offers. This year, a number of
guests were invited to speak on landscape architec-
ture and job opportunities for Stockbridge students
and graduates.

For social events, dinners and dances are planned
throughout the year for club members.

91

Turf Management Club

In addition to helping its members form a
better understanding of Agronomy, the Turf
Club introduces to Stockbridge students ideas
and openings for jobs. Among the speakers
that have come to the meetings, are superin-
tendents of golf courses and cemeteries dis-
cussing pesticides, maintenance, and new
developments in Turf Management.

For social events, the Turf Club had its year-
ly golf tournament in October. There is also a
"get together" each year at Hatfield Barn for
the members.

Time it was and what a time it was

In order for a yearbook like STOSAG '73 to become a success, there has to
be many hours spent, and much effort by a conscientious competent staff.

This year's staff wasn't made up of a few key people who take all the credit.
The credit belongs to the entire staff. Each person gave unselfish contributions
to help compile all the details that go into making a yearbook representative
of the Stockbridge School of Agriculture.

What does a member of the yearbook staff get for his work? His reward is
late nights in the STOSAG office when he should be studying for tomorrow's
test, chasing after a professor all day for an interview, sacrificing his free night
to take pictures at a club meeting. But more than that, he is able to see a job
well done and have a good time doing it.

This year's book was kept rolling along by encouragement and guidance
from our advisor, Mr. Ed Pira. We surely would have fallen on our faces with-
out his help.

We were fortunate this year in having a great photography staff. Through
the talents of Chet Yazwinski and Marc Huot we were able to give the book
a very personal touch with a close-up view of Stockbridge.

Every word in this book was specially typed by the staff. It is an immense
task. It couldn't have been done without our typists Claudia Steding and
Dottie Greene who were always available and willing to spend whatever time
was necessary to type out a write-up.

Although everyone on the staff was responsible for gathering write-ups and
working on layouts, the bulk of this effort was by John Tyndall, Paul Royer,
Jim Russo, and Joe Dymek. Under the professional guidance of Mr. Brian
Hawthorne, representative of the O'Toole Publishing Company, we learned
proper lay-out designs and new techniques. Although our meetings with him
lasted far into the night, they were quite worthwhile, and we appreciate his
patience and understanding.

We would hke to wish John, Paul, and Jim good luck in the 1974 Stosag. We
know that with their enthusiasm and ability it will be a great success.

Brad & Tim
