Industrial Education For Georgia Leaders Call For Practical Change
Professor E C J Dickens, president of the First District Agricultural School at Statesboro, urged industrial education in Georgia before the State High School Association. He argued that soil, forests, mines, and waterways offer vast resources and that scientific training will conserve resources, reduce costs, and multiply state wealth. He highlighted farming, livestock, home economics, districts schools, and Georgia Tech as key drivers, praising girls' technical training and the Milledgeville Normal and Industrial College. He urged strengthening rural schools, expanding district agricultural schools, and promoting home economics as central to Georgia’s prosperity. He stressed education as the best remedy for demagogues and social upheaval, and endorsed his own work to elevate the First District Agricultural and Mechanical School as a model for rural advancement.
