Abstract	This article is the author's Distinguished Lecture presented at the 2010 Annual Conference of the American Association for Agricultural Education (AAAE), in Omaha, Nebraska, on May 25, 2010. In this lecture, the author looks back at the significant changes in agricultural education in the last 100 or so years and discusses four major ways that one can take agricultural education to "The Next Level." He concludes his lecture with some fundamentally important, unanswered questions for the profession. The author urges those in the field of agricultural education to jointly commit to creating "A New Agricultural Education"--one characterized by: (1) a unified discipline with greater disciplinary capacity; (2) a stronger and deeper scientific base; (3) a broader purpose in colleges of agriculture; and (4) faculty members with broad perspectives and deep expertise in their discipline. He emphasizes that now is the time to refocus their efforts toward a greater common cause in agricultural education and proactively use their unique disciplinary expertise in collaboration with other scientists to ensure that American agriculture is solidly positioned to continue its vital role in the society in the decades ahead.
