Getting REAL

REAL is an acronym for Rurally Engaged Agricultural Leaders. This is a program for students sponsored by the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences at North Carolina State University. It was REALly enjoyable talking with these students about Land-Grant Colleges on November 5. One of the best questions posed by a REAL student was “When land-grant colleges were first established, where did they find the agriculture professors?” This was a great question. Fortunately, I had the answer.
