Notes:
Summary of a presentation at the annual conference of the Association of Communication Excellence in Agriculture, Natural Resources, and Life and Human Sciences (ACE), Annapolis, Maryland, June 14, 2012. 1 page., Dean and Director of the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, University of Georgia, urges educational communicators to serve as strategic advisors to deans and other administrators in addressing issues and opportunities. Communicators uniquely span the range of interests of departments and colleges in which they work.
"The agricultural college editors stand at a very strategic point in the field of agricultural leadership. Through them the productive research of our laboratories may become articulate. As interpreters, they are liaison officers between the scientist and the farmer. The future of agriculture depends largely upon the quality of this interpretative process."
Reports results of a national survey among experiment station editors about their present information organization and their suggestions about how they would like their present setup changed for more efficient operation. Seventy-eight percent cast their vote for a coordinated setup (involving agricultural research, extension and possibly resident instruction). Fifty-four percent of respondents operated currently in a coordinated setup and like it; 24 percent operated in a decentralized arrangement but wanted to change.
