WE PROUDLY DEDICATE THE 19 5 8 MR. O. M. SMITH It ' s a picture on the wall — a picture of a man; but, more than that, a personification of lasting success and consistent achievement in a career employed to advance improved education. Yes, a rare occasion has presented itself to MTSC students as the products of a 47-y ear career lay before us for observation and example. The rarity of it? Our school has seen not only the climax and results, but also the initiation of such attainment. In 1911, as Middle Tennessee State College (then the Normal) first opened, a young man entered in aspiration of an eventual teaching position. After studying here, he went to the University of Tennessee and later received his Bachelor and Master ' s degrees at Peabody College. After successfully assuming various teaching and administrative positions and being licensed to practice law, he became president of Tennessee Polytechnic Institute in Cookeville where he served for 18 years. Then, in 1938, when Middle Tennessee State College sought its third president, he was chosen to lead his Alma Mater.

MIDLANDER Twenty years have passed and MTSC has seen distinct advancements under his leadership. Well thought-out plans for numerous additional campus facilities have materialized. Noted throughout this territory for his en- during accomplishments, he has been recognized in Who ' s Who in America and by many official administrative organizations as one of America ' s outstanding educators. Both a source and a product of MTSC ' s un- paralleled educational endeavors, the effect of President Qumtin Miller Smith ' s dedicated career does not end with his retirement —for many will look to him as an ever -enlightening guidepost toward complete and definite accomplishments. Thus, to you, retiring President Smith, we dedicate the 1958 MIDLANDER with the hope that lingering memories of not only this, but the past 47 years will be pleasantly recalled as you continue to add color to your admirable picture of triumph.
