DEAN HAMPTON DEAN OF WOMEN The expanding program of Middle Tennessee State College created, in 1960, the need for a new administrative office. The appointment of a Dean of Women marked a significant step for- ward in the development of the administration and its capacity for administering to the needs of MTSC students. Dean Martha Hampton will be recorded in the next Fifty Years of MTSC history as the third Dean of Women. She came to the college from Palmer, Tennessee, where she had taught for more than twenty-five years in the Palmer elementary school. Her B.S. and M.A. degrees were taken at Middle Tennessee State College and her Ed. S. from George Peabody College. The understanding which Dean Hampton has displayed in handling the problems of students who have needed her guidance, her sense of humor and her fundamental faith in the advancement of learning have made her a great asset to the college community. During her first months as Dean of Women she has more than demonstrated her love of truth, her spirit of tolerance and her ability to render great service to the individual and the college. 22

Author of a book on financial administration, Mr. Woodmore uses his experience and know- ledge to assist Mr. Jackson in meeting the needs of a constantly increasing student body and expanding campus activities. T. B. WOODMORE Associate Business Manayer BUSINESS MANAGER In the materialistic world of 1962, success cannot be separated from finances.
