The Dairy Barn and Silo were constructed in 1926-27 and served as a
teaching facility for forty years. The barn was designed by Fort Worth
architect, W. C. Hedrick, with the help of agricultural dean, A. H. Leidigh and
Professor W. L. Stangel. Students brought their own cows to campus until 1935,
and milk products were first marketed through the Student Dairy
Association.
After 1927, the Dairy Manufactures Department, established by K. M.
Renner, furnished milk and ice cream to the Lubbock community and college
cafeterias. The barn was abandoned in 1964 when dairy operations were moved to
another location. In 1990-92, a successful student fundraising effort insured
the preservation of the dairy barn as a symbol of Texas Tech's agricultural
heritage.
Donated by the Student Government Association, the collection consists
of correspondence, national register of historic places nomination, notes,
papers, photographs, publicity, donation reports, and renovation reports.
