Fifty Years of Nebraska Extension Service Progress
Nebraska Extension Service, part of the University for over 50 years, built on a 1914 act creating a US Department of Agriculture land grant partnership. From Model T demonstrations to 4-H, volunteers, and mass media, it expanded with workshops, home economics, and marketing programs, now reaching beyond counties via television.
