NCTA in 2020 – Part 1 Saturday, January 16, 2021
NCTA Dean’s Message by Larry Gossen, Ph.D.
We are fortunate to be back on campus again this semester with in-person classes and full programming at the Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture.
Most everyone is healthy and back to work in classrooms and offices, and for that we are thankful.
Due to our unique programs and small size of campus population, our NCTA academic calendar is slightly different than some of our University of Nebraska counterparts.

NCTA Dean’s Message by Larry Gossen, Ph.D.
Welcome to NCTA’s Spring Semester, and an active college campus again.
It certainly was quiet around town and desolate on campus while Aggie students were home for holiday break.
We welcomed them back to Curtis and the Nebraska College Technical Agriculture with a continued emphasis on health and safety. Over the holidays, I had notified students that their very first test of the new semester would be one taken outside of their academic coursework.
