FOREWORD MANY DOORS ... MANY KEYS... 1962 was another year of noticeable growth for Dickinson State Teachers College. The new library building was com- pleted, our enrollment reached a record of 845 in the fall quarter, our wrestling team set a small college record on the national level with 24 consecutive dual victories, and the State Board of Higher Education approved plans and made appropriations for a student union and science building. Your 1962 Prairie Smoke has tried to record most of the memorable events of the year in pictures. Many memories arc involved in the course of one college year and we, the 1962 staff. hope that this edition of Prairie Smoke will be a comprehensive record of the people, the places, and the events that affected you in 1962.

GOVERNOR WILLIAM GUY Governor William Guy, North Dakota's Democratic hcad-of-state, was elected for his first term in 1960. With his election and that of North Dakota’s first Democratic senator, our state was fast becoming a two-party state in which political events and ideas gained in interest. During the first term of Governor Guy, Dickinson State College continued its rapid growth. We, the students of Dickinson State, are grateful to Governor William Guy for the leadership he afforded during one of the most important years of our existence. STATE BOARD OF HIGHER EDUCATION During 1962, the State Board of Higher Education approved the plans for two more buildings for Dickinson State College. They voted to appropriate the money necessary to construct a new student union and a badly needed classroom building that will house the science facilities for our growing school. The Board was aware of the growth of Dickinson State and under its able direction, we will now be able to offer much more to the ever-increasing number of students.
