" I'm glad that they let the junior guy - the
kid - be involved with some of the big guys on
that, " he said.
Another noteworthy achievement, this one
in the 1980s, was the result of investigating
what was thought to be a consensus among
consumers that there was an overwhelming
preference for lean beef, which many assumed
to mean beef with no marbling.
Savell was part of a research team that
conducted the national consumer retail beef
study in the early '80s, which concluded that
what consumers really wanted was beef that
tasted good, but they did not want all the fat on
it, which led to the closer-trimmed cuts that are
commonplace today.
Through that research, Savell and his team
renamed the leaner beef. For the purpose
of the study, the leaner cuts, which were
previously categorized as " good, " got a new
moniker that stuck.
" Good didn't sound good for the test. So,
we used 'Select' for the name - so we had
Choice and Select. "
Following that study, the USDA was
petitioned by one of the study's supporting
consumer groups, which resulted in the agency
changing its beef carcass grade from " good " to
Select in 1987, " to better fit consumer attitudes
and perceptions as identified by the National
Consumer Retail Beef Study. "
Then in the 1990s, Savell recalled how food
safety became the focus of the industry, due in
large part to the infamous Jack in the Box E.
coli outbreak in 1993.
He said succeeding in his role as an
academic has required him to accept that
change is inevitable and discovering solutions
that embrace change has been a part of his
evolution as an educator and a researcher.
" I've used that as an example to tell
students that you will graduate with a degree,
but you've got to be prepared that the field
you're in will change. And you have to always
be a continuous learner. "
ENCORE CAREER
When first approached about applying for the
position of vice chancellor and dean, Savell
dismissed it because he had never served as
a department head. However, the department
head requirement didn't apply since he was
recognized as a Distinguished Professor at
A&M in 2014, one of the highest honors given
to Texas A&M faculty members.
Once he began the long application
process for the position, someone along the
way pointed out that Savell had never been
an administrator.
" I said, 'That's correct.' I said, 'this
building's full of administrators. It needs
leaders.' I think that's how I've tried to

" I like the fact
that somebody
recognized
he could be
an asset to
the whole
university in
a bigger role. "
