New Officers of the American Dairy Science Association
New Officers of the American Dairy Science Association 1 New officers of ADSA for 1995-1996 are Larry D. Satter, Vice President; Harold M. Farrell, Jr., Director for the Dairy Foods Division; and M. F. Hutjens, Director for the Production Divison. LARRY D. SATIER
Larry D. Satter is Director of the US Dairy Forage Research Center, USDA-ARS, and Professor of Dairy Science, University of Wisconsin, Madison. A native of Minnesota, he received the B.S. degree in animal science from South Dakota State University and the M.S. degree in dairy science from the University of Wisconsin. His Ph.D. was joint between the Department of Dairy Science and Department of Biochemistry at the University of Wisconsin. Satter spent 1 year teaching at the University of Ife in Ibadan, Nigeria as part of a US AID-University of Wisconsin team effort in institutional development. In 1965, he returned to Madison to join the Dairy Science Department as Assistant Professor. His teaching activity was in the area of animal nutrition and included such courses as principles of animal nutrition, dairy cattle nutrition, and ruminology. He has served as thesis advisor for 24 M.S. and 20 Ph.D. students and has hosted 18 postdoctoral and visiting scientists in his laboratory. In 1981, he joined the US Dairy Forage Research Center, becoming Director in 1987. Satter has authored or coauthored 336 publications, including refereed papers, book chapters, conference proceedings, popular press articles, and abstracts. Two of his papers that had a high frequency of citation were selected as
lNominating Committee of the Dairy Foods Division: D. M. Barbano, S. E. Duncan, P. A. Savello, G. L. Christen, and M. E. Sanders, Chairperson; Nominating Committee of the Production Division: R. P. Natzke, R. Goings, M. 1. Montgomery, L. D. Guthrie, and L. S. Bull, Chairperson. 1995 J Dairy Sci 78:2966-2967
Current Contents Citation Classics. Most of his research has been in the area of protein nutrition and forage utilization by dairy cattle. Satter became a member of ADSA in 1960 and has served on the Editorial Board of Journal of Dairy Science; several selection committees for ADSA awards; Secretary, Vice Chair, and Chair of the Production Division; and Chair of the ADSA Program Committee. He was a member and Chair of the Ruminant Nutrition Program Committee for the American Society of Animal Science and member of the planning committee for the Nth International Symposium on Ruminant Physiology, held in Banff, Alberta, Canada. Satter has served on two National Research Council subcommittees that prepared the publications Feeding Underutilized Feedstuffs to Animals and Nitrogen Utilization by Ruminants. In addition to ADSA and the American Society of Animal Science, Satter is also a member of the American Institute of Nutrition, American Forage and Grassland Council, and the Nutrition Society (England). He is the recipient of the following awards and recognitions: Teaching Award of Merit of the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, University of Wisconsin, Distillers Feed Research Council Distinguished Nutritionist Award, American Feed Industry Award, American Cyanamid Award, Wisconsin Forage Council Research Award, and Pioneer Hi-Bred Forage Award. HAROLD M. FARRELL, JR.
Harold M. Farrell, Jr., is a native of Pennsylvania; he was born in Pottsville, Pennsylvania and grew up in the town of Ashland in Schuylkill County. He received his B.S. degree in chemistry in 1962 from Mount Saint Mary's College of Maryland. He continued his studies at The Pennsylvania State UniVei~ sity, where he received his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in biochemistry. He was a National Academy of Sciences Postdoctoral Fellow at the USDA Eastern Regional Research Center

(ERRC) in Philadelphia from 1968 to 1969. In
1969, he joined the staff as Research Biochemist in the Milk Properties Laboratory. He was Research Leader of the Biochemical Investigation Group of the Dairy Laboratory from 1975 to 1986, Acting Research Leader of the Biochemistry and Chemistry of Lipids Research Unit from 1990 to 1991, and currently Lead Scientist for the study of the biochemistry of lactation at ERRC. Farrell has been a member of ADSA for 23 years and has served the association as a symposium organizer, as a member of the Marshall Rhone-Poulenc International Dairy Science Award Committee, and as a member and Chair of both the Milk Synthesis Committee and the Milk Protein and Enzyme Committee. Farrell was the 1985 recipient of the ADSA Borden Award and the Chair of the 1993 Gordon Research Conference on Mammary Biology. He has also. served as Secretary-Treasurer of the Philadelphia Biochemists Club and was elected to membership in the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in 1981. Farrell and his coworkers have been engaged in a variety of fundamental research programs related to the biochemistry of milk, milk proteins, and the mammary gland. In particular, he has investigated the role of specific enzymes involved in milk synthesis as well as the structute and function of milk proteins, particularly the caseins. MIKE HUTJENS
Mike Hutjens is Extension Dairy Specialist and Professor of Animal Sciences in the Department of Animal Sciences, University of Illinois, Urbana. He received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Wisconsin, Madison in mastitis detection (M.S.) and milk fat depression (ph.D.). He received the national Ralston Purina Fellowship (2 years) and University of Wisconsin Fellowships (2 years). In 1970, he received first place in the Graduate Student Paper Presentation Contest. In 1971, Hutjens joined the Department of Animal Science, University of Minnesota as Extension Dairy Specialist. In 1979, he ac-
cepted his current position at the University of Illinois, where he teaches an introductory dairy science course, an extramural course off campus, and leads the Illinois dairy extension program (conducts 95 meetings, coaches the 4-H dairy judging team, and leads field dairy research efforts). He also coordinates an introductory dairy nutrition seminar for American Association of Bovine Practitioners each year and has coauthored a textbook on dairy science management. His educational programs have been presented in 43 states, 9 Canadian provinces, and 7 foreign countries. Hutjens writes columns for Hoard's Dairyman. Dairy Today, Dairy Herd Management, Dairy Japan, and Dairy Farmer (Western Canada). Hutjens has been involved in ADSA activities, serving as 1995 Chair of the Program Committee; Secretary, Vice President, and Chai~ of the Production Division (1992-1994); Resolutions Committee and Chair (twice); Extension Education Committee; Nomination Committee; and award selection committees. Hutjens is currently Vice President of the ADSA Midwest Branch, and he has served as a member and as Chair of the Extension Committee (1992-1993). The professional efforts of Hutjens have been recognized with the ADSA DeLaval Extension Award, ADSA Nutrition Professionals Applied Dairy Nutrition Award, Paul Funk Award, College of Agriculture Award, and the University of Illinois All Campus Extramural Teaching Award, Person of the Year Award (Minnesota Holstein Breeders), Dairy Science Award (illinois Milk Producers Association), and PDCA Service Award (Illinois Purebred Dairy Cattle Association). Mike and his wife, Carol, reside in Savoy, Illinois with their five children and are members of Saint Matthew's Catholic Church. He was honorably discharged from the US Army Reserves after 6 years as a Specialist Five. I
