Weekend Food Specials Vital Role at State College War Effort
South Dakota State College has trained thousands for war work since Pearl Harbor. About 7,000 Army Air Corps airmen and 7,000 Army personnel received training on campus, with hundreds more in engineering, welding, aviation mechanics, and radio work. The campus also led agricultural efforts under Food for Victory, supporting Grow More in 44 and aiding farmers with labor, while faculty assisted or joined national defense programs.
