 ix women received the first Master of Science degrees in home economics to be conferred during
mid-winter commencement ceremonies.
Although the school since Jan. of 1968 has been authorized to grant Master of Science in teaching degrees for this subject,
the Board of Regents of state universities and Coordinating Council for Higher Education have approved expansion in the program
so graduated can be formally recognized for positions in addition to teaching. Full accreditation of the new offering is
expected this spring.
The first recipients will be Glenna Bushman, Pittsville, Helen M. Firkus, Neenah, Phyllis Pope, Medford, Bernadelle P. Toser,
Stevens Point, and Mary Zurawski, Stevens Point, Ann Elsen Eggleston, Whiting.
They are among 70 current participants in the home economics graduate program, according to Dr. Agnes Jones, department chairman.
Persons who received the M.S.T. in home economics during the past two years have been Mrs. Mary Ann Baird, now a member of the
university faculty; Mrs. Flora Mae Buhr, Mrs. Mary Hallquist and Mrs. Carol Sautebin.
