Dairy Club

LetterHE Dairy Club is composed of students in the College of Agriculture who are interested in dairying or who are majoring in dairy husbandry. The purpose of the club is to unify and so make more effective the efforts and interests of dairy students in promoting and directing those college activities which are of special interest and value to dairymen. The club also attempts to create a greater interest in dairying and to promote acquaintances and good fellowship among the students of the department. The club aids in defraying the expenses of the dairy judging teams.
