search through journal, As the profession of agricultural communication continues to develop and refine its mission in society, we must relate this mission to our academic programs. Therefore, we must continually examine the profession where our graduates will find professional positions. By doing so, we continually refine our programs for academic content, gain new knowledge to realistically advise our students, and therefore produce graduates who will meet the expectations of our profession. This article looks at selected characteristics of practicing agricultural communication professionals from six professional organizations and give insights into concepts we must consider as we plan our academic programs and advise our students.

Notes:
Paper presented at the ISEC/BIFAD Working Seminar on International Education and Training: a focus on relevancy and support services, April 23-24, 1986, Washington, D.C., Author emphasizes how the educational needs of lesser-developed-country (LDC) students are very different from their U.S. counterparts. "An international student's success in our universities is often hampered by language inadequacies, cultural and religious differences, dietary restrictions, extended family separations, and non-familiarity with the U.S. university system." Calls for universities to offer the most important things U.S. universities have to offer: methods of systematic inquiry, organizational skills, administration; prioritization of values and effort; and ability to conceptualize what's important.
