Resident Bishop, Nashville Area, The Methodist Church As Bishop of The Holston and Tennessee Annual Conferences of The Methodist Church, Roy H. Short has evidenced genuine interest in the programs of the colleges within his jurisdiction. Having visited the campus on several occasions during the past few years. Bishop Short has been enthusiastic concerning the development of the Col- lege toward full senior status. It is with sincere appreciation that the students, faculty, and administration acknowledge the interest and effort of Bishop Short. THE REVEREND MR. F. HEISSE JOHNSON, A.B., B.D., Ph.D. Director of Christian Higher Education and Development, Holston Conferences Colleges. The interest of The Reverend Dr. Heisse Johnson in Tennessee Wes- leyan College actually began in the Fall of 1953, when he became Dean of the College. From that time until his recent appointment to this Conference-wide post, Dr. Johnson worked diligently for the academic improvement of the institution and for the eventual recog- nition of Tennessee Wesley an as an outstanding four-year liberal arts college under the auspices of The Methodist Church. The College is grateful to Dr. Johnson for his services in the past and covets his continued interest in its future. THE CABINET THE REVEREND MR W. R.

Central Methodist Church, Knoxville, Tennessee, November 7 — 8, 1958. For her entire history, Tennessee Wesleyan College has been related to some branch of The Methodist Church. During much of this time, the College has belonged to and received its major support from the Holston Annual Conference. The interest of the members of the Conference in the expanded program of the College has grown steadily through the years, and concurrent with the emphasis upon institu- tions of higher learning throughout The Methodist Church, Holston Conference has made a careful study of its three colleges and their needs and possibilities for further service. As an expression of their faith in the institutions, the members of the Conference held a special session in Knoxville on November 7 — 8, at which time they voted to undertake a two-million dollar fund-raising campaign, the major portion of the fund to be used for the religious programs on the campuses of institutions within the Conference and the three Conference colleges. All of those who are connected with Tennessee Wesleyan College deeply appreciate the loyalty of the Conference to the College, and every effort will be made to continue to be worthy of enthusiastic support and concern. DEDICATION Our 1959 NOCATULA dedication spotlight is on Professor William M. McGill with sincere appreciation for his unswerving loyalty and devotion of time and energy for the scholastic advancement of Tennessee Wesleyan College. Professor McGill holds a B.A. degree from Vanderbilt and has done additional graduate work at the University of Tennessee. After holding teaching positions at the Uni- versity of Tennessee and the Univer- sity of Mississippi he came to Wesleyan in 1954. Since then Professor McGill has been serving as assistant professor of English. In addition to his position on the faculty, he is currently advisor for the NOCATULA and sponsor of the Eta Iota Tau Fraternity. Still going beyond the call of duty, Pro- fessor McGill has served as an in- spiration to many students by his personal counseling and his active participation in the religious life of Wesleyan. Because he has been to us a helper, a teacher and a friend; because he has made our lives at Tennessee Wesleyan College richer; and because his ex- ample of a dedicated Christian life has helped us spiritually; we dedicate this record of our lives at Tennessee Wesleyan College during 1958-59 to Professor William M. McGill. Professor William M. McGill The Life of Riley !? Maggie always finds an easy way out!

MARTIN, A.B., S.T.B., M.A., D.D. As Tennessee Wesleyan College has worked during the past several years toward full recognition as a senior institution, the vision, the in- sight, and the determination of President Martin has been the major source of encouragement for faculty, students, and interested alumni and friends. Dr. Martin combines in a fashion not usual among college presidents administrative ability, a keen intellect, and a genuine ap- preciation of arts and letters interpreted within the context of the Christian view of life. These combined talents President Martin has given without reserve to the College and the Holston Conference. ROBERT C. MILDRAM, Ph.B., B.D., M.A., Ph.D. When Dr. F. Heisse Johnson assumed his Conference-wide post last year, the College began its search for a new Dean during this crucial period. The nomination and election of Dr. Mildram to this position brought to the campus one of the most versatile and penetrating minds to serve this institution during its entire history. Dean Mildram ' s wide experience in administration, student personnel work, and counseling are invaluable to him and to the College as he works with President Martin, the members of the faculty, and the student body to bring to more complete fruition the Wesleyan dream. ADMINISTRATION MARY NELLE GRAVES Administrative Secretary No single member of the administrative staff has been more enthusiastic and tireless in seeing the College through this crucial year than Mrs. Graves. Her insight and efficient management of the myriad of details that must be handled in President Martin ' s office are of genuine value to Dr. Martin and the institution. PAUL RIVIERE, B.S., M.A., B.D. Dean of Admissions and Registrar It is true that Dean Riviere ' s name has been the brunt of many comments by students of early American historv, but this is one year that he has had no time for midnight rides. His has been the responsibility of pages and pages of reports and statistics in preparation for the Southern Association, and to him each member of the community is grateful. R. E. BRANHAM, C.P.A. Bursar Perhaps it is no accident that the letters after Mr. Branhanrs name stand for Certified Public Accountant, for in a very real sense he is accountable for the financial records of the College. His considerate nature and affable personality contribute greatly to the ease with which students part with their gold.

The organiza- tion and management of the library during this transition period has been a major task, and Mrs. Myers has successfully carried on her responsibilities while at the same time furthering her ow n professional training. VERA COE Mrs. Coe is energetic, versatile, and congenial. These qualities have stood her in good stead as assistant to Mrs. Myers. She is particularly talented in print- ing and illustrating, and her book displays in the library are attractive and stimulating. MARILYN S. JOHNSON ANNE GODSEY CATRON For several years Wesleyan has been in need of a book store which would An outstanding student, Mrs. Catron is now a full-time member of the library encourage and make possible the reading of good books which the student might own and enjoy. Since becoming manager of the book store, Mrs. John- son has improved the purchase and distribution of text books as well as pro- viding an attractive and varied selection of paper backs. staff, and she is especially valuable as the library holdings are being increased so rapidly. Her efficiency is a real help to both Mrs. Myers and Mrs. Coe. IDA RUTH LEWIS An understanding, kind person is Mrs. Lewis, contributing much to the staff as house mother of Lawrence Hall Dormitory. REBA PARSONS An important asset to the Ritter Hall Dormitory is Miss Parsons who is al- ways ready to help her girls in any way that she can.

Moving into dormitories, be- coming acquainted with roommates and other bewildered neo- phytes, endless meetings and tests — these are just a few of the events of this busy week. Perhaps these pages will bring back memories — both pleasant and unpleasant — but unforgettable. Speaking of the unpleasant, note these members of the Class of 1962 as they ponder one of the placement tests. Good Luck, Freshmen! Among the pleasant activities of the week — the reception for new students at the President ' s home. Members of the official family of the College at the reception: Dean Best, Vice President of the Student Council; President and Mrs. LeRoy A. Martin; Harry Vestal, President of the Student Council; and Dean and Mrs. Robert C. Mildram. 4g SEPTEMBER 21-29 A full program on the campus of a church-related college involves serious attention to the work of the local church, and it also sug- gests that the lighter moments of life need to be balanced by con- cern for the needs of the human spirit. During these first weeks at T.W.C. , new students found a place for matters of faith and opportunity for fun. The Reverend Mr. Gordon Sterchi, newly-appointed minister of Keith Memorial Methodist Church, explains the program of his church and its interest in the students of the College.

The programs that have been presented on the campus this year have brought together those of like intellectual and cultural interests, and these contacts have enriched the lives of all who have participated. In a very real sense, the function of a liberal-arts college is to liberate and enlarge the minds and spirits of persons within its influence, and the activities pictured within these pages indicate that the College is making a substantial con- tribution in this area. CULTURAL LIFE The Committee for Cultural Life: Left to Right: Jack Houts, Carl Honaker, Harry Coble, and Mary Greenhoe. A faculty committee is responsible for bringing to the stu- dent body artists, lecturers, and programs of interest in many fields of activity, particularly the arts. Some of these events are light and spectacular, as was the Llords Pup- pets International; some are more serious, as was the unusual and interesting performance by The Bishop ' s Com- pany, religious drama repertory company of Santa Bar- bara, California, which was sponsored jointly by the Cul- tural Life and the Religious Life Committees; and some are in the nature of a concentrated period of formal and informal teaching, as was the two-day visit of Eugene Jemison, who brought to the campus his wealth of knowl- edge and skill in the folk-arts. In addition to the main events sponsored by this commit- tee, and to the Civic Music Association whose concerts are performed on the college campus, a weekly series of in- formal Four O ' Clock occupied Sunday afternoons from October through mid-April. They consisted of lectures, readings, art exhibits, and recitals by college faculty mem- bers, guest faculty, teachers and students from other col- leges and cities (including an opera workshop, woodwind quintet, creative dancers, violinist, monologist, and pian- ists) ; outstanding foreign and American films; the reading of Auden ' s oratorio for speaking chorus, narrator, and solo- ists, For the Time Being ; an unstaged reading of a con- temporary drama; and a lecture by Walter Terry, author- ity on the dance and the arts, who is dance critic for the New York Herald Tribune. 50 FOUR OCLOCKS THE MARYVILLE COLLEGE OPERA WORK- SHOP in a performance of Pergolesi ' s comic opera La Serva Padrona.

Every effort has also been made to place the well-known types of character in the hands best fitted to sustain them. The following is the distribution of characters: Mr. MANNINGHAM Mr. RICHARD JOHNSON Inspector Rough Mr. Harry Coble First Policeman Mr. C. Stanbery Second Policeman Mr. H. Nave Mrs. Manningham Elizabeth Nancy Miss Bobbie Jean Martin Miss Judy Quails Miss Judith Hays The entire action of the play occurs i located in the Pimlico district of London. i a house on Angel Street. The time is 1880. ACT ONE Late afternoon ACT TWO Immediately afterwards ACT THREE Later the same night The play was staged by Mr. Coble. FACULTY TALENT SHOW. JANUARY 22 At least once each year, the student body is reminded of the fact that the members of the faculty are possessed of great musical and dramatic talent that needs only to be seen to be appreciated. It may be that some of the students feel that the talents displayed here are greater than those displayed in the class- room — at least some of them are more interesting . . . As Miss Parsons calmly knits one and pearls two in her rocking chair, Miss Greenhoe reminds the students of Broadway, Mr. Branharn, Dr. Walle, and Mr. Coe recall favorite melodies, the quartet pleads for a fallen girl, the trio gives the classics a spot. Dr. Thompson reads empassioned poetry, and Chap- lain Short typifies The All-American Boy. 54 PANELS AND PARTIES Student activities on the Wesleyan campus this year have included both serious discussions and fun. The group at top left is engaged in conversation concerning the question of integrity in all phases of college life. This panel stimu- lated much interest and led to increasing concern about integrity on the part of both the students and the faculty . . . The remaining pictures in the column were taken during the masquerade party on Halloween, one of the most successful social events of the year.

Yet another evidence of this relationship and of its constructive benefits for all concerned is the Civic Music Association series inaugurated this year, with the programs presented in the auditorium of the College. The concert grand piano, a portion of which is visible in the picture of the choral group, was purchased through the cooperative efforts of the Civic Music Association, the Athens Music Club, the College, and interested individuals in the College and community. The third concert of the season was given by the National Artists Symphonette, with Amparo Iturbi as piano soloist.

An enjoyable and inspiring feature of the weekly Wesleyan Worship services is singing of familiar hymns. As a church-related College, Tennessee Wesleyan recognizes the importance of opportunity for regular worship on the part of both faculty and student. This year the weekly services known as Wes- leyan Worship have been designed to give both students and church leaders in the community the privilege of presenting major aspects of the Christian faith as they relate to the campus. Fred Gooden operates projector during one of several religious films shown this year. 60 DR. JOHN BAILLE VISITS TENNESSEE WESLEYAN ' Belief is not intellectual assent to creed but an act of faith. ' Dr. John Bailie, Dean of the Faculty of Divinity at the Uni- versity of Edinburgh, was on the campus from January 21- 25 as a Danforth lecturer. The most distinguished figure in theological and philosophical world leadership ever to visit the College, Dr. Bailie spoke to students, faculty, and towns- people, presenting formal addresses and answering questions in discussion groups. Dr. and Mrs. Bailie were both stimulat- ing and gracious as they shared with the community their years of work and association with leaders of Christianity everywhere. Character is man ' s personal response to the impersonality of nature. ' Faculty in church-related college must have absolute freedom of inquiry. 61 RELIGION-IN-LIFE WEEK, APRIL 13-16 One of the major events of the year is Religion-in-Life Week. Interest in this program has grown encouragingly | during the past several years, and students have been stimulated by the intellectual and spiritual challenges which have been pre- sented to them through chapel addresses, forums on topics of interest suggested by students, and informal discussions in the dormitories. The purpose of the program is to demonstrate the relationship of basic Christian principles and ideals to the life of the mind. The Convocation speaker for this year was Dr. E. F. Jones, minister of Central Methodist Church, Knoxville, Tennessee. Dr. Jones was born in Falkville, Alabama, and was educated in the public school of that city. iHe received the A.B. degree from John Fletcher College, University Park, Iowa, in 1935. He was awarded the B.D. degree by Asbury Theological Sem- inary in 1938, and he was received on trial in the Holston Conference in 1938. Since that time he has served in Pulaski, Vir- ginia; Big Stone Gap, Virginia; Cleveland, Tennessee; and Greeneville, Tennessee. Dr. Jones is widely traveled, having visited the Holy Land and India. He was a dele- gate to the Jurisdictional Conference of The Methodist Church in 1956. Dr. ELTON F. JONES RROTHERHOOD WEEK, FEBRUARY 11-12 One of the outstanding organizations for brother- hood in America is the National Conference of Christians and Jews, devoted to the promotion of understanding between Christians and Jews. Brotherhood Week is observed nationally in February each year. Rabbi Feinstein has been a friend of the College for many years and he is now a member of the faculty. Rabbi Feinstein is respected and loved by his congregation in Chattanooga, where he has been given life tenure, and he is in demand as a speaker on college and university campuses throughout the country. RABBI ABRAHAM FEINSTEIN 62 a raanizciuons f ti (%ove uufte«tt During the past several years students have assumed increas- ing responsibilities in the areas of student government, publications, and student organizations of various kinds.

WESLEYAN ROUNDTABLE Two new organizations on the Wesleyan campus this year are the International Rela- tions Club and the Wesleyan Roundtable, designed to give students, faculty, and towns- people an opportunity to participate in lec- tures and discussions of significant current issues . . . ■ A faculty pane] discusses national and world affairs. Beginning with a faculty panel which considered the general state of affairs in the country from the point of view of their particular areas of interest, the Roundtable has brought to the College business and professional leaders to talk about particular problems . Mr. Martin Ochs, editor of the Chattanooga Daily-Times, discusses Eisenhower ' s State of the Union message. The response of students and interested per- sons in the community has been encouraging. Especially stimulating was the lecture by Mr. Ochs and the question and answer period which followed. As the students become more conscious of these national and international problems, the Roundtable will become in- creasingly important on the campus. Students examine Eisenhower ' s speech. 69 TENNESSEE WESLEYAN COLLEGE CHOIR FIRST ROW, Left to Right: Glenda Brewer. Linda Styles, Sarah Loftis, Elizabeth Watkins.

Under the inspired direction of Jack Houts, the Tennessee Wesleyan College Choir travels annually throughout the Holston Conference to give sacred and secular con- certs in churches and schools in the entire area. This year the Choir was privileged to sing before the Southeastern Jurisdictional Convocation of The Methodist Church in Atlanta. Another traditional feature of the organization ' s activities is the spring festival, the presentation of a musical comedy in cooperation with the dramatics denartment of the College. The Choir is a major asset to the College, both in the religious services and other programs on the campus and in the pro- motion of the College and of the cause of Christian higher education throughout the Holston Conference. The value of the Choir to those who participate is diffi- cult in terms of discipline and training and in the development of an appreciation of the contribution that music of a high quality can make to the abundant life.

During the winter quarter a faculty talent show was presented to the general public. In the spring a program of original music composed by members of the group was given. Sandra Edenfield and Joyce Howard, pianists, were entered in state competitions for ratings. One of the most important projects of the fraternity is the offering of an annual scholarship to a freshman who plans to study music at Wesleyan.

Joan Ogle assumed presidential duties and Harry Vestal was named Kappa King. Joan and Harry were further honored as Mr. and Miss T. W. C, and Joan, as sweetheart of the Eta Iota Tau fraternity. The social activities for the year included: a coke party honoring our Sweetheart, a spaghetti feast on Thanksgiving, a Christ- mas dinner, an Aunt Jemima Pancake Breakfast for the prospective pledges, a dinner-dance for our Kappa King, the annual pledge dance, and the annual Spring Banquet. The Kappas helped the Phi Sigs gather toys at Christmas and in April, enjoyed decorating and hiding Easter eggs for some of the underprivileged children of Athens. Phyllis Butcher, Tina Moses, and Joan Ogle attended the Kappa Delta Phi Conclave in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The first activity of the sorority was a dance at Adams Recreation Center on Octo- ber 4 at which it was announced that John Alise had been elected Zeta sweetheart for the year, and Bruce Wentworth was to remain mascot for another year. At Thanksgiving the Zetas delivered a basket of food to a needy family in the housing project. On January 16, the Zeta rush party was held at the home of Mrs. K. O. Elderkin. The party had an international theme; the sorority members dressed in costumes of other countries. During the fall quarter Sue Fuller became a full member of the sorority and Cornelia Harris began her pledging. After the rush party Phyllis Highland, Janice Hurst, and Rosie Webb pledged Zeta. The Zetas began participation in intramural sports in Janu- ary during the volleyball tournament and participated in other phases of the intramural program. By the end of the year the Zetas will also have held a dance for the pledges, sponsored the heart fund on campus, and held a banquet for the group.

Mrs. Robert Mildram was elected co-sponsor along with Mrs. Wilmer Robbins, who is sponsor for the sec- ond year. Our activities included a party in honor of our sweetheart, Founder ' s Day observance, a Christmas remem- brance for an under-privileged family. The rush party after Christmas was a Japanese tea. Eleven girls were pledged. Two of the members were elected to Who ' s Who; three were chosen as Senior Superlatives; seven were elected to offices in their respective classes; the president was elected president of the Choir; and a member was selected as Athletic Queen.

The 1958-59 academic year was one of the most active and productive years in the life of the Eta Iota Tau Fraternity. Having worked for two years on the reorganization of the fraternity looking toward eventual affiliation with a national senior college fraternity, the Hits made definite strides in this direction. A Board of Directors, under the chairmanship of Mr. Hebron Ketron, was elected to assist the men in their work. Other members of this board were: Dr. Carl Honaker, Professor Jack Houts, Professor Bill McGill, Mr. Edgar Self, Mr. Neal Ensminger, and President Alise. When the Hits decided to petition for a chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon, it was necessary for Mr. Self and Dr. Honaker, who were members of another national fraternity, to resign. They were replaced by Professor Clifton Smith and Mr. Paul Starnes. As NOCATULA goes to press, the Hits are waiting for final action on their petition, with the hope that they may achieve chapter status in May or June. Brother John Alise and the other officers and brothers of the fraternity are to be con- gratulated for their fine work during the year. The men have particularly enjoyed their chapter room in Petty-Manker. The progress of the fraternity could not have been possible without the work of Brother Ralph Lewis, who is now making an outstanding record in the School of Theology of Boston University. Cheese! ' ' 91 Board of Directors. IC5 KS S ATHLETIC DIRECTOR AND BASKETBALL COACH Mr. Clifton (Tip) Smith Coach William Bovd Cate Mr. Clifton (Tip) Smith has made an outstanding contribu- tion to the athletic program at Wesleyan since joining the faculty. After several years as a coach and instructor at Bradley High in Cleveland, Coach Smith guided Wesleyan basketball teams through two outstanding seasons. Coach Smith is a graduate of Carson Newman College, where he majored in chemistry. It was with considerable reluctance that Coach Smith asked to be relieved of his duties as coach of varsity basketball, and it was with pleasure that the col- lege community was not to lose his services. Coach Smith is respected as a teacher and gentleman. With Coaches Smith and Cate, Wesleyan athletics can look forward to even more successful programs in the years to come. Coach William Boyd Cate came to Tennessee Wesleyan from Warren County High School of Bowling Green, Kentucky. He attended Bradley High School in Cleveland, Tennessee, where he was an outstanding basketball player. After three years of military duty, Coach Cate entered Western Ken- tucky State College in Bowling Green, Kentucky. He was a member of the famous Western five for three years. During his senior year, he received honorable mention for Ail- American. Coach Cate played one year of professional bas- ketball with the Waterloo Hawks. He has had six years of experience in high school coaching and brings to Wesleyan a very fine record. He is married to the former Joy Davis of Bowling Green, Kentucky. 94 VARSITY BASKETBALL SQUAD Left to Right Clyde Link, Stu Feldman, Bob Donoho, Jim Traylor, Randy Miller, Wayne Standefer, Coach Cate, Don Mobley, Manager, Tommy Springfield, Bill Storm, Sammy Craig, Jerry Edmonds, Bobby Blankenship. 95 TENNESSEE WESLEYAN COLLEGE ( Max Carroll, Captain Bill Storm Sammy Craig Bob Arnold o « 22 a Dick McGhee fe v.

Storm hits for two! 101 HOMECOMING TALENT SHOW 102 MISS NANCY FRENCH INTRAORALS Since football has been dropped at Wesleyan, there has been an expanded intramural program which has included foot- ball, basketball, volleyball, and softball. The teams partici- pating in these sports were the Alpha Taus, Town Boys, Petty-Manker, Phi Sigs, Freshmen, Hits, Preachers, and Cen- tennial. The competitive spirit of these games was very keen and many took an active part. Centennial Hall came out on top as the football champions and the Alpha Taus won the regular basketball schedule and then defeated the Town Boys in a close, well-played game for the tournament cham- pionship. Some of the outstanding players in football were Pop Wilburn, Bill Irwin, George Renegar, Edwin Dodd, and Al Mehaffey; in basketball, outstanding players were Blue Lowry, Ronnie Ely, Ricky Swett, Paul Ketron, John Leonard, Bobby Blankenship, George Renegar, Bill Hurst, and Bill Irwin. As the book went to press, volleyball and soft- ball had not been started. Go, man, go! Dance ballerina dance! Ball, ball, who ' s got the ball? INTRAMURALS The Intramural program has been especially active this year for the girls. Volleyball was particularly popular early in the year, and the NOCATULA staff regrets that the book had to go to press before activities in basketball and softball were underway. The advantages of intramural activities are numerous, not least of all for the spectators. One consolation the girls can have is that according to a well-established law of physics, What goes up must come down, and the ball will surely hit the floor somewhere. The line between athletic participation and dance some- times appears quite thin. Note the difference in near-panic on the part of some of the participants in this picture and the philosophical, movie-like pose of others. Invisible score-keeper, Jerce Howard is at far left in this picture. Well, any time you get tired of volleyball, there ' s always basketball, and the hoop looks very inviting. You may be surprised that no indication is given in any of this copy concerning who is playing whom, or the scores of the games. The reason for this is very simple: we don ' t know. INTRAMURALS Obviously, it is quite difficult to wax enthusiastic and poetic about pictures on this page. While the athletic prowess of the men may be superior to that of the women, the pictures are not nearly so attractive. Seriously, the competition this year, especially in basketball, was keen and created considerable interest on the campus. It is the sincere desire of the administration and of the physical education staff that the intramural program be strengthened in the next few years. 106 CHEERLEADERS With Tina Moses as captain, the cheerleaders have added pep and zeal and have greatly contributed to the school spirit at athletic events.

An intramural Softball contest was the main activity of the spring term. Much of the success of the organization should be attributed to the fine leadership of Nancy French.

Martin arrived on the campus of Ten- nessee Wesleyan College on July 6, 1950, a new era began for the College and community. As Dr. Martin closes a dis- tinguished and dynamic Administration, the words of Bishop G. Bromley Oxnam are more than vindicated: Dr. Martin is one of the few men whom one can speak about enthusiasm and without reservation. You will find him thoroughly loyal to your own program and to that of the church, and an individual who will put everything he has into the institution itself. On behalf of every person in the College, the staff of the 1959 NOCATULA records on these pages a few of the high points and happy mo- ments in the life and work of Dr. Martin and his family in the hope that they will remember with justifiable satisfac- tion the years on this campus. The fact that Chattanooga is so near Athens and that the Martins plan to keep Footnote is happy news for all of us, because this means that our association will continue. The trustees, faculty, and student body of the University of Chattanooga are in- deed fortunate : and we wish for Dr. Martin and his fam- ily happiness which a job well done so richly deserves. ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE MARTIN ADMINISTRATION Primary among the achievements of Dr. Martin ' s Adminis- tration has been the establishment of Tennessee Wesleyan as a senior college. On the basis of a letter from General James A. Fowler of Knoxville on January 20, 1952, and the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees began intensive study concerning the establishment of Tennessee Wesleyan as a four-year college. In 1952, Dr. Martin con- ceived the idea of an Advisory Board, composed of outstanding business and civic leaders in Athens who would counsel with the President concerning business af- fairs of the institution. On May 11, 1953, the Study Com- mittee voted to recommend to the annual conference that Tennessee Wesleyan College become a four-year institution as soon as certain requirements could be met and provided that at least $108,900 be underwritten by the Advisory Board of the College. These conditions were met, and on June 3, 1954, the Holston Conference voted unanimously to make Tennessee Wesleyan a senior college. With this decision, another chapter in Dr. Martin ' s work began. Ad- ditional faculty and staff were secured, the physical plant of the College was almost completely remodeled, and the curriculum and total program of the College was com- pletely re-evaluated and strengthened. On December 4, 1958, Tennessee Wesleyan College was officially welcomed into the Southern Association of Colleges and Universi- ties, and on June 15, 1959, the University Senate of The Methodist Church announced that Tennessee Wesleyan was fully accredited by that body. The visiting committee of the Southern Association as they compile their report which was to result in the accreditation of the College by the Association on De- cember 4, 1958. Dr. Martin and Mr. Tom Sherman, a generous benefactor of the College, are shown as Mr. Sher- man presents a check toward the proposed Laura T. Sherman Fine Arts Building. Mr. R. R. Kramer, chairman of the Board of Trustees, and Dr. Martin congratulate each other upon the opening of Centennial Hall just before the beginning of the 1958-59 academic year. Dr. and Mrs. Martin chat with Dr. and Mrs. David A. Lockmiller at a reception for Dr. and Mrs. Lockmiller following a chapel ad- dress by the President of the University of Chattanooga, whom Dr. Martin will succeed on July 1. 1959. Ill REMEMBER THESE?

Dr. Martin and his family have been an inspiration to both students and faculty, and to the citizens of Athens. During these nine years of Dr. Martin ' s administration, Tennes- see Wesleyan College has grown from an excellent Junior College into an accredited four-year institution of unlimited possibilities. It has been a privilege and an inspiration for me to have been in contact with Dr. Martin, a man of such high integrity and such loyal devotion to Tennessee Wesleyan and to the high ideals of the Church-related institution. I am sure that I speak on behalf of the citizens of Athens, the faculty, and the student body of Wesleyan when I say Thank you, Dr. Martin, for a wonderful and successful administration ; we wish you the very, very best of luck in the future.
