Bio/Historical Note: Dr. Eiler Shirley Humbert was born in 1927 and raised on a farm south of Regina, Saskatchewan. During the Depression his family was forced off the farm, then relocating to be with family in San Diego, California. The family later returned to Saskatchewan to the family farm. After completing elementary school near his farm, and high school at Central Collegiate in Regina, he enrolled at the University of Saskatchewan. He completed his undergraduate and Master's degree in Dairy Science in the College of Agriculture and was awarded the Tommy Fraser Memorial Trophy for sportsmanship. Dr. Humbert earned his PhD at Michigan State University. In 1954 the U of S offered him a faculty position in the Dairy and Food Science Department in the College of Agriculture. He served as president of the Saskatchewan Agricultural Graduates Association and was awarded an honourary life membership. He and his wife Jean were members of the "Sod Busters", a donor group that enabled the initial planning of the new College of Agriculture building. Upon retirement he became Professor Emeritus. Dr. Humbert died in December 2020 in Saskatoon at age 93.
