James F. Evans Collection, This article summarizes the results of a video technology survey in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences at the University of Georgia. Faculty perceptions and use of alternative video systems are presented. Impacts of video technology on faculty activities and productivity are examined. Faculty adoption of video technology are described in a human capital framework. The study found that enhanced video technology would increase faculty productivity, involve more faculty in teaching activities, reduce travel time and costs, and improve communications within in the college. Strategies for developing enhanced video communications are discussed. (original)
James F. Evans Collection, The shared hopes of farm ownership in America motivated many Black farmers and educators during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Although an independent Black yeomanry was not to be, and a host of factors have combined to remove Black Americans from farming, the quest has not been a vain one. Black land-grant institutions continue to redefine their mission in a changing world and in the process maintain their relevancy. (original).

James F. Evans Collection, The writing intensive (WI) program at the University of Missouri is an unique attempt to increase written communication skills within the discipline of study of undergraduate students. A major problem of the WI experience is building of writing skills through revision of written assignments. Analytical and critical thinking skills are also a component of the WI course. The use of written assignments in a poultry production course is outlined. (original)

James F. Evans Collection, Research and extension program priorities of land-grant colleges of agriculture have received considerable attention over the past several decades. In contrast, undergraduate education has received comparatively little attention. However, this may be changing. Negative publicity about declining undergraduate enrollments and stressed budgets for agricultural college teaching programs at some institutions are leading some deans and faculties alike to examine their undergraduate programs and consider how curricula and courses can better meet student and employer needs. Unless this is done, research and extension programs, as well as teaching programs, will be adversely affected. (original)
