Extension Education Should Be A Part Of Agricultural Education

Abstract

This issue of The Journal contains the beginning of a series of "debate the issues" articles authored by leaders in agricultural teacher education. The first of these Special Features addresses the "pros" and "cons" of combined departments of agricultural and extension education. The authors are Ralph E. Bender, The Ohio State University, and Harold R. Crawford, Iowa State University. It is hoped that these articles will stimulate professional discussion and enrichment. Reactions from readers will be welcomed.
