Editor ' s Note Between the covers of this book the members of the 1957 MIDLANDER Staff are seeking to bring to you, as we saw it, the high Hghts and accom ' plishments ot this school year. The annual is not the work of just my staff, who have done a fine job and are presented to you on page 54, nor that of our photographers, printers and engravers, but of each of you, the faculty and students, as well. It is your actions and accomplishments that have made the book possible. Our job was just to put your actions in print. I would like to recognize a few of the people who have helped the staff present the 1956 ' ' 57 school year to you. To the photographers. Dr. Bealer Smotherman, Wink Bennett, and Ed Delbridge, my vote of thanks. To Mr. Ben Shields ot Ambrose Printing Co., our printer, and to Mr. Ruben Gulbenk ot Gulbenk Engraving Co., our engraver, and their staffs, thank you. To Mr. Gene Sloan and the Publication Committee for their advice and criticism, and the members of the Eng- Hsh department, Mr. Gregg Coleman and Mrs. Elizabeth Schardt, who proot-read the copy, my special thanks. The Midlander staff, however, owes the most to you, the faculty and students, who have made the school year a success and the annual possible. The staff and I hope that in the years to come this book may serve as an inspiration to you, as you use it to recall the part of your life spent here at Middle Tennessee State College.

M MstmtioH Without a strong administration a college can- not function. Middle Tennessee State College, one of the five state colleges in Tennessee, enjoys ex- cellent supervision from a well-qualified administra- tion. Located on a 375 acre campus, the college has twelve departments and offers a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Arts degree, with additional op- portunity for a Master of Arts in Education. The Branch General unit of the Reserve Officers ' Train- ing Corp offers opportunity which qualifies for a commission in the armed forces upon graduation. w the past decade buildings and equipment have increased in value by more than $4,000,000, and the new library, now under construction, will add $450,000. Founded in 1911, the college has grown until now over two thousand students are enrolled. hi this section the Midlander staff introduces the administrative staff, the faculty members and their departments.
