Consequently, it is good that Prairie Smoke preserves life as it was at Dickinson State College in its 47th year. In the pages of this annual the students and staff of 1964-65 are pictured for posterity as they were in that event- filled year; the activities and accomplish- ments of students in 1964-65 are recorded here as they enlarged the ever-expanding environment for learning, which is Dickinson State College.
