Notes:
Online via Ovid.com. Abstract of dissertation for PhD from the University of Idaho. 1 page., Responding department heads reported no difficulty in recruiting and retaining agricultural communicators. No geographic pattern was apparent in difficulty of recruiting. Tenure was perceived not necessary for agricultural communicators to interact successfully with faculty in academic units. There was no strong support for tenure within agricultural communication departments by department heads.
7 p., The increasing use of computers on the farm raises the question of whether these new skills will be valued in off-farm employment. Data suggests that computers are used predominantly for a single group of tasks that may not develop the "systems skills" that are becoming increasingly important in off-farm employment.
