Moorhead, Minn. | seosdravhA - saixineatntl aed W sksed out Hoibnind, indorsed by the Nonpartisan S “What Is to Be Done With the A. C.?” E expesure by the Nonpartisan Leader of the real state of affairs at the State Agricultural college and the plans of Governor Hanna’s board of regents to reduce the college to a mere trade training school and experi- ment station has aroused friends of the college all over the-state. Daily news- papers have been silent regarding the proposed changes or had covered up the real intent and actions of the regents. Following the publication of the Agri> cultural college story in the Leader of August 3 the Fargo Forum made an investigation which resulted in the fol- lowing editorial, a recognition’ of the fact that the Leader alone of all state papers had been able to get at'the truth - of college affairs and had the courage and enterprise to print it. The title of the editorial is the heading above. It reads, in part, as follows: ? “What is the North Dakota board -of regents going to do with the North Da- kota Agricultural college? - ! “It is high time the people of the state had the answer. “For months the public has been pa- tiently awaiting the report of the com- mission which has been ‘making a sur- vey of the different state educational’ institutions. This report was promised last spring. Then it was said that it would be made public after the June® primaries. The primaries have long since passed and still the report is with- held: Now it is said that the report is to be ‘'made public this fall. ¥ “Why this- delay? The" report has been completed. Why not give-it.to the public? = AN “There have been disconcerting_ rumors regarding the nature of this report as if. affects the A. C., but little credence has been given them. Recently, however, The Nonpartisan Leader. quoted Secre- tary Charles Brewer of the board of ré- gents, to the effect that the board plan- ned to take four of the four-year preo- fessional ‘courses from the ' Agricultural college and consolidate them with the university. : ; “These courses were said tobemechan-. ical and civil engineering, architectural engineering . and architecture. Short courses, it was said, were to be substi-. tuted, at the agricultural college. “Furthermore, Mr. Brewer was quoted as saying that the general policy would be to take all professional courses from - the agricultural college, leaving only in- dustrial. and vocational courses at the “More recently, The Forum has had confirmation of the truth of these state- ments which The Nonpartisan Leader: credited to Mr. Brewer, in & private re-- port from-Grand Forks: It'is said:to-be an_open ‘sécrét at the. university campus that the. agricultural; college is %o be stripped “of many of its most important professional courses and is to be mad a secondary institution, devoted’ almost exclusively . to the teaching of _purely agricultural courses. - . TR “These reports - have beern spread broadcast.over the state and already they have done the agricultural college incal- culable harm. ° It is said that six.of the students who would have.graduated from the agricultural college next year have ‘already decided to go to some other insti- tution to finish their education. “Can it be possible that these reports are true and that the agricultural college is to be wrecked? Is that why the board of regents has failed to make public the report of the survey committee? “The ' people of Fargo are especially - ; proud of the North Dakota “Agricultural ? college. It is recognized as one of the city’s most_valuable: adjuncts and the people of this city do not propose to stand by and see it changed to’the shell of its former self. In this view they have the backing of the great farming community of the state. © "~ “On behalf of the people of the state, The Forum demands that the proposed changes in’ the educational institutions g S e .made . :' Ne'w: and Rebullt Hart ALL HART-PARRS are OIL-COOLED, and BURN KEROSENE or We sell new Hart-Parr Tractors and Separator Tanks, Belts, Haznismann | : Binder Hitches, Lan Self Feed man and M S - moblles Batavia Tires—all sizes. .
