in 1983, covers the formation and foundation of the
profession as it existed between 1840 to 1920. The second
segment was developed in 1988 to detail the development
of Home Economics in the years 1920 through 1984. The
final segment is currently in development. It will explore
recent changes and growth in the profession between
the years of 1985 and 2005.
