It gave the courses of study but said no more about agriculture than it did of other subjects ... Another official publication ... was known as the Report of the State Agricultural College. It gave no data about the college in general but concerned itself entirely with the school of agriculture. This differentiation ... served to create the erroneous impression that there were two separate institutions of learning.")
