| Kenyon Butterfield served as president of the Massachusetts Agricultural College during an important growth period in the early part of the 20th century. A native of Michigan, Butterfield was trained as a rural sociologist at Michigan Agricultural College (BA, 1891) and the University of Michigan (AM, 1902), and gained experience as editor of the //Michigan Grange Visitor//, as superintendent of the Michigan Farmers' Institute, and as a field agent for the Michigan Agricultural College. After a brief and lackluster appointment as President of the Rhode Island School of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts (1903-1906), Butterfield arrived at the Amherst campus in 1906, ready to fulfill his vision of agricultural education in service to the nation. | Kenyon Butterfield served as president of the Massachusetts Agricultural College during an important growth period in the early part of the 20th century.
