Title

Cottage cheese, 1930

Description

A round of cottage cheese, presumably made by the dairy department at Iowa State College is shown in this February 5, 1930 photograph.
The first coursework specifically on dairying was offered at the Iowa Agricultural College in 1880 and included instruction on the breeding and care of dairy cows, milk composition and production, and manufacturing of cheese and butter. In 1890, the Iowa Agricultural College Board of Trustees approved the building of the College creamery and the beginnings of a dairy program. The Department of Dairying was established in 1898 and included: a four-year course, a one-year course, a winter course, and a summer course. Graduate work was first offered in 1911. The name of the department changed to the Department of Dairy Industry in 1928, then to the Department of Dairy and Food Industry in 1957. In 1961, it became the Department of Dairy and Food Industries and in 1969, the name and curriculum were changed to the Department of Food Technology. In 1990, the department merged with the Department of Food and Nutrition to form the Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition.

Title

Counterfeit corn ear, 1945

Description

Iowa State College students Virginia Smith (left), West Liberty, and Electa Groszkruger, Belle Plaine. examine the famous ""counterfeit"" corn ear. Smith is a home economics senior, and Miss Groszkruger a sophomore in home economics education.
The library was first housed in Old Main, which also contained the college's reception room, lecture hall, specimen museum, students' rooms, a chapel, kitchen, laundry, and dining room. An initial purchase of $2,500 for books for the library was made in 1870 by President Welch. The library was moved to Morrill Hall in 1896 and to the Central Building (now Beardshear Hall) in 1913. In 1925, the new library building was completed to house the library's 115,000 volumes under one roof. The new facility was not large enough to allow for adequate expansion and was outgrown within five years. The first addition to the library was completed in 1961, with a second addition completed in 1969 and a third addition was completed in 1983. In 1984, the Iowa State University Library was officially dedicated as the W. Robert and Ellen Sorge Parks Library.

<![CDATA[Couple embrace under the Campanile, 1954]]> https://www.iowaheritage.org/items/show/67258

Title

Couple embrace under the Campanile, 1954

Description

A couple, Wayne Brown (Veterinary Medicine degree, DVM1955) and Doris Blair Brown (Home Economics1954), embracing under the Campanile. A car is parked in the foreground on a dirt road.
Throughout the twentieth century the Bells of Iowa State have sounded across the campus. The first bells were placed in the Campanile in 1899. Since then they have become an outstanding tradition of the University as well as a unique symbol remembered pleasantly by alumni and campus visitors. This is exactly as their donor, Edgar W. Stanton, wished. Stanton graduated with the first class at Iowa State in 1872. He spent 50 years on campus as a student and faculty member, becoming the Head of the Department of Mathematics, secretary to the Board of Trustees, dean of the junior college, vice-president, and on four different occasions, acting President. His first wife was Margaret MacDonald Stanton, first dean of women. When she died, July 25, 1895, she had been closely identified with the University for almost twenty-five years. Stanton wanted to establish a monument so all students and friends of Iowa State would remember her. He finally decided to purchase and have installed a chime of 10 bells in a detached tower on central campus. President William M. Beardshear helped him choose the site, and the state legislature appropriated $7, 500 for the construction of the tower and its clock.
According to H. Summerfield Day's The Iowa State University Campus and Its Buildings, 1859-1979 (1980), construction began in 1897 and was completed in 1898. The contractor was J.F. Atkinson and the architect was George E. Hallett. The final cost was $6,510.20 and the Campanile stood 110 feet tall and its main shaft was 16 feet square. Stanton died September 12, 1920, and his will provided that after certain bequests were taken out, the residue of his estate should be turned over to the University for furnishing a memorial to him. His second wife, Julia Wentch Stanton, and the children, decided to request that the University install 26 additional bells, thus forming a musical instrument which became known as the Edgar W. and Margaret MacDonald Stanton Memorial Carillon. In 1954, the trustees of the Stanton Memorial Trust joined with others to create the Stanton Memorial Carillon Foundation to further the advancement of the carillon at Iowa State. One of the first acts of the Foundation was to purchase 13 additional treble bells, along with a new keyboard large enough to accommodate a 53-bell carillon. They were installed in 1956, brining the total number of bells in 49. In 1967, a fiftieth bell was added.

Title

Cows in stocks at Stange Clinic, 1928

Description

Two cows in stocks in the cattle wing of Stange Clinic. Dr. Bemis is in the picture, along with four other men.
Courses in Veterinary Medicine were first offered at Iowa State in 1872 to the senior class in agriculture. Instruction in anatomy, physiology, pathology and veterinary science and practice was given by H. J. Detmers. He resigned after one year and the position remained vacant until 1877, when Millikan Stalker joined the faculty. Under his direction, the School of Veterinary Science was founded in 1879, making it the first state-funded veterinary school in the nation. The two-year program was extended to three years in 1887. In 1898, the School became a Division of Iowa State College and Stalker was made its first Dean. In 1903, the program was extended to four-years, the first such program in the country. In 1912, the Division became departmentalized with the creation of five new departments. By 1931, a year of pre-professional training was required for admission to the program. That requirement was extended to two years in 1948.

Early physical facilities included a barn that served as a clinic and laboratory, a veterinary hospital (1885-1926) and the Sanitary Building (1885-1927). The Veterinary Quadrangle was constructed in 1912 and housed the College of Veterinary Medicine until 1976, when the $25.6 million complex on the south campus was opened. Funding was requested and approved for these new veterinary medicine facilities 2 miles south of the main campus in 1964-1967. The complex was finally constructed in 1974-1976 and the architects were Henningson, Durham & Richardson. The College continues to expand with its new Livestock Infectious Disease Isolation facility completed in 1999 and a new 108,000 square foot equine and production animal building finished in 2009, the Dr. W. Eugene and Linda Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center.

Title

Craig Liquid Extraction Apparatus, 1951

Description

Frank Janssen, a graduate student in chemistry, with a Craig Liquid Extraction Apparatus. This apparatus, invented by Dr. Lyman Craig, an Iowa State alumnus, was widely used for separating medicinal and other biologically important materials. It performed in a single series of steps separations that would have taken many hundreds of steps if done using earlier methods. In this instance the apparatus was used to study Vitamin B12 and other important materials in biological chemistry.
The Iowa Agricultural College and Model Farm offered chemistry classes to its first classes in 1869. The department was formally established in 1871, and served students in Agriculture, Engineering, Science, Home Economics and Veterinary Medicine. The Chemical and Physical Laboratory was constructed in 1870-1871, and after it burned in 1913, a new building, Chemistry Hall, was built to replace it. Department Chair, Winfred Coover (1914-1944) expanded the teaching system and emphasized independent research throughout World War I and the post-war period. With the advent of the Ames Laboratory and World War II, the Chemistry Department further developed its cutting edge and interdisciplinary research programs in addition to its teaching. In 1973, Chemistry Hall was renamed Gilman Hall, in honor of Distinguished Professor of Chemistry, Henry Gilman. The Department also has laboratories, classrooms and offices in Hach Hall. The Chemistry Department is now part of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Iowa State University, and also frequently partners with the Ames Laboratory.
