Nova Scotia Agricultural College

The Nova Scotia Agricultural College (NSAC) is a Canadian university college located in Bible Hill, Nova Scotia, a village near the town of Truro. The NSAC was officially founded February 14, 1905. In the early years, the NSAC focused on educating farmers in aspects of field and animal husbandry. NSAC entered a new era in 1980 after the Nova Scotia government passed legislation authorizing the institution to grant undergraduate B.Sc. (Agr.) degrees. The NSAC offers the only university level program in agriculture in Atlantic Canada. The press, Golden Ram, is a member of CUP. The Nova Scotia Agricultural College was officially founded February 14, 1905 by the merger of The School of Agriculture (1885–1905) in Truro and The School of Horticulture (1893–1905) in Wolfville. NSAC was located on the provincial demonstration farm in Bible Hill which has grown over the years to a total area of 442 hectares (1122 acres). It is located along a bluff overlooking the Salmon River. In the early years the college focused on educating farmers in aspects of field and animal husbandry.

  • Maria Ly is quite literally a Rock Star. You’ll often find her hanging off a 5.13a grade rock climbing route, she is the rock star co-founder of Skimble (which is incubated by Rock Health), and you can find her rock formation photography featured in Outside Magazine.

  • March 13, 1988 was the day we moved to America. Although it wasn't my first time in the country, that date was the beginning of my journey through the American school system. Those eleven years filled me with a lifetime of great memories.

  • Mayank is an inventor and zebra-enthusiast. He developed Stripespotter, a biological barcode scanner for zebras, and is a part of the team behind Facebook insights. By way of India to Oman to the US, Mayank can be found behind the wheel of a red Porsche dreaming up his next big idea.
