"Swatting Flies--Eating Elephants" challenges the Extension system to become a premier adult education agency by focusing talented teachers on real world clientele. The thesis is that Extension has compromised itself by clinging to a dwindling clientele-base with an unfocused curriculum and a strategy of political reliance.
