NOVEMBER 20, 1952 .... 3 Alumni Play Key Role In Ten MSC Centers of Michigan Agricultural Research MSC Research Program Seven branch agricultural experiment stations in Michigan, all but one in charge of Michigan State College alumni, con­ tribute some outstanding findings to benefit people. These results, when ap­ plied, help farmers in their production, homemakers in food buying and prepar­ ation, and processors in readying products for consumption. Research Benefits Many In the end the consumers profit by having a larger variety of higher quality food available at less cost. All these stations are a part of the Michigan Agricultural Experiment Sta­ tion, founded in 1887 as an important part of Michigan State's three-pronged educational arm of teaching, research and extension. Under leadership of Dr. C. M. Hardin, director, and Dr. Roy Marshall, assistant director, this net­ work of stations has a technical staff of 240 men and women including those at East Lansing. A majority of the tech­ nical researchers at the main station have part-time duties in teaching or ex­ tension in agriculture or home economics. Work Involves 325 Projects This staff is working on more than 325 separate projects at an annual expendi­ ture of nearly $1,800,000 of which nearly $300,000 comes from grants.

NEW GILTNER HALL BEGINS FIRST YEAR OF OPERATION: Michigan State's new $2,400,000 veterinary medical center opens its first year of full operation this fall. The new structure, built with funds from an appropriation by the Michigan Legislature, connects the old veterinary and anatomy buildings which have been thoroughly modernized. Containing nearly five acres of space, Giltner Hall serves some 2,600 students taking courses in veterinary medicine, bacteriology and public health, and anatomy.
