Historical Information
 The NDSU Saddle and Sirloin Club was organized on March 15, 1918, under the direction of J.H Shepperd and through the efforts of the livestock team that represented NDSU at the International judging contest in Chicago.  They felt a need for some organization that would help develop a greater interest in animal husbandry at the college.
 
Each year since 1922, the club has presented its Little International Livestock Shows.  These are patterned after the International Livestock Show in Chicago but differ in one respect.  The Little International is a contest in showmanship and not on the merits of particular animals.  Each year the club chooses an outstanding individual in the field of agriculture.  Each year, the Saddle and Sirloin Club has many activities at the International.  Some of these events include choosing a Little International royalty, sausage making and sales, spring picnic, Christmas dance, and Kiddie Days.
 
The different activities of the club not only supplement the instruction in various fields of agriculture, but give the students an opportunity for experience in group activities and the handling of group problems not demonstrated by the original classroom setting.
