Porcttideal Ut W wl combiise Page .. . [22] Uel Walter Lamkin came to this school as its president in 1921. At that time the administration building, the power house, the green house, and the President's residence were the only buildings on the campus. There were thirty-two members of the faculty and the student enrollment was about five hundred fifty. Since President Lamkin has been administering the college many buildings have been added to the campus thereby greatly enhancing this institution's value as a teacher education college. These buildings are Residence Hall for women; the Industrial Arts building; a large modern dairy barn and various other farm buildings; the Gymnasium; the Horace Mann Laboratory School; a splendid new library building; the Home Economics Home Management House, and a group of men’s dormitories known as the Men's Quad. The campus has become increasingly beautiful as a result of a well exe- cuted landscaping plan and policy. As many as ninety varieties of trees contribute their beauty to the general plan of the campus. The faculty has increased to seventy members and its efficiency and effectiveness has also improved. The student body has grown to an enroll- ment of nearly one thousand or more each quarter. The College has been admitted to membership in the American Asso- ciation of Teachers Colleges and the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. It has received the highest rating given by these college associations. The Coliege has also been admitted as a corporate member of the American Association of University Women and its women graduates have full recognition in that Association. The College under President Lamkin’'s leadership has always been pro- gressive. It has pioneered in elementary education by offering a major in elementary education on a four-year level. It has added to its teacher edu- cation facilities the nursery school. It has introduced general education courses and taken leadership in this manner along with other progressive colleges in the nation. President Lamkin has demonstrated a keen interest in this College's outstanding reputation for skill and sportsmanship in its inter-collegiate ath- letics. His broad interests are further deinonstrated by his attendance at all our college athletic events as well as many others held in this area. President Lamkin is living a full life contributed to education. He has been State Superintendent of Missouri Schools; President of the National Education Association; and National Administrator of the Veterans Rehabili- tation Administration. He serves on many important committees devoted to the study and administration of education. He is now, and has been for three years, Secretary-General of the World Federation of Education Asso- ciations, and has participated in international education conferences in Europe, Asia, and South America. Many men of the wide range of important activities similar to President Lamkin's do not find it possible to keep in close contact with the youth who are being educated through their efforts. This is not the case with President Lamkin. He mingles with the students in their everyday activities and it is not uncommon for him to give an adequate portion of his time to help stu- dents in the solution of their problems.
