This time, we give attention to Leath’s comments about Iowa State’s first president, Adonijah Welch. Leath noted Welch “was a bold visionary” who wanted to make the new land-grant colleges improve the lives of the state’s citizens in important ways. To educate students in a curriculum that would prepare them to do that, Leath said, Welch “made sure that the core programs of engineering and agriculture were Photos courtesy of Flickr and Wikimedia Iowa State’s first president, Adonijah Welch, left, was responsible for carrying out the Land-Grant College Act, named for former U.S. Rep.

Week Three Tip: Save the emotions for Facebook. The biggest mistake a fantasy football competitor can make is starting his favorite player over someone who obviously has a better matchup. En Fuego: Both the Ravens and Patriots need wins. Expect Baltimore to use its signature smash-mouth style of football and give Ray Rice a bounty of carries to help relieve pressure off the passing game. Heated: Cam Newton. Tony Romo and Josh Freeman had performances that led the Giants’ passing defense to the 22nd rank. Newton is a much bigger threat than New York’s previous two opponents.
