Excerpt from The Farm-Poultry, Vol. 23: June, 1912 In its extraordinary activities an agricultural college is simply seeking to remedy defects for which it is not responsible. The Spirit of this is commendable, but the wisdom of the policy is certainly debatable. What the college does through its extension service is not col lege work at all - that is. It is not of college grade and quality. The students in a correspondence course, and those attending popular lectures, simply absorb what they can. In a large measure this is true of the students in the shorter short courses, and in less measure of students in all short courses - especially of those with out previous practical experience in the line of work they are studying. The tests which are applied to regu lar students, and secure a reasonably high standard of proficiency as the minimum, cannot be applied to them.
