5. The John McConnell Era

Abstract

The years 1959 through 1962 were full of ferment and sweeping change with striking developments in location, curriculum, and extension programs in the ILR School. Of primary importance in the school’s history was the move, during the academic year 1961-62, from the old Quonset hut and barrack building on the engineering campus to the present location in the old Veterinary College.
