Spirits were high and alumni were all smiles at the luncheon for the agricultural class of 1967 during Homecoming Week.

Saturday, the graduating class of the first four-year agricultural program at Tarleton met for their fortieth anniversary. Around eight members were present at the luncheon, which took place at the Tarleton Alumni Association House on McIlhaney Street at noon on Saturday. The class of 1967 had 40 members, the eight in attendance Saturday were all very impressed with Tarleton's current Ag Program.

One of the members said he was happy to see the students getting good jobs these days as a result of the Agriculture Program.

Tarleton is the third largest non-land grant agriculture university in the United States and one in every six students at Tarleton is an agriculture major. Tarleton's Agriculture Center is located on 2,000 acres of university land and includes a dairy beef cattle center, feed lot, and ranch. Tarleton is also the national leader in certification of agricultural science teachers.

Information on Tarleton's agriculture program can be found at www.tarleton.edu/~ag.
