Bio/Historical Note: Formal instruction in Home Economics began at the University of Saskatchewan in 1916. Ethel B. Rutter came to campus to teach household science to Normal School (Education) students and students in the College of Arts and Science. Her first laboratory was in the College Building, with lectures given in Emmanuel College. Rutter described the equipment in the original foods laboratory as being two New Perfection coal oil stoves, one sink, a small ice refrigerator, two large cupboards and Bunsen burners under metal screening for top of the stove cookery. The Household Science department became a school in 1928, a college in 1942, and in 1952 was renamed the College of Home Economics. The college was disestablished in 1990, with the Home Economics teaching area continuing in the College of Education. The Nutrition program continued in the College of Pharmacy, which was renamed the College of Pharmacy & Nutrition in 1995.
