Content Description
Newspaper articles, photographs, and assorted publicity materials related to Aggie Ice Cream, part of the Department of Nutrition, Dietetics and Food Sciences at Utah State University. Also includes various office files, memoranda, and ephemera.
Historical Note
In 1888, the creamery facility, a teaching laboratory from the beginning, was established in the northeast basement of Old Main on the campus of Utah Agricultural College (now Utah State University). Studying under professors such as F. B. Linfield, Gustav Wilster, A. J. Morris, and Paul B. Larsen, students apply the skills and theories learned in classes to build the foundation for a world class dairy production program. The Aggie Ice Cream's store front is opened in 1922 and to celebrate the 100th anniversary, Governor Spencer Cox signed an official declaration designating June 21, 2022, as Aggie Ice Cream Day. By 2023 Aggie Ice Cream produces 52,000 gallons of ice cream annually.
