Dr. As Dickinson State College recognizes a half century of progress, it is appropriate that recognition be given to a man who was responsible for much of that progress. Dr. Charles E. Scott first joined the staff in 1922 as head of the depart- ment of education when DSC w'as Dickinson Normal School. Later, he accepted a position at Minot State College and re- turned to DSC, serving as president from 1939-1939. Dr. Scott was interested in the students of DSC and was anxious to help them in any way he could. He was often seen engrossed in conversation with students in the halls and Charles Scott on the campus. After his retirement, Dr. Scott continued to serve in the field of education as state director of the American College Testing program. In 1966 he returned to DSC and taught classes in the education department. Dr. Scott was active in many organizations and w-as a leader in the Dickinson community. He died suddenly in his home on October 6, 1967, the day before Homecoming. In view of his dedication to DSC for over 25 years, we dedi- cate this 1968 Prairie Smoke to the memor)’ of Dr. Charles E. Scott. 2

Entrance to Education The Samuel T. May Alumni Memorial stands as the gate- way to Dickinson State College, symbolizing many avenues of exploration for DSC students. In DSC's first 50 years it has established and built upon its tradition. Tradition has been established in its administration, always in favor of policies that will improve and advance the college. A tradition of involvement has been established as students are eager to become active members of the college community. A fine record of athletic competition and excellence is shown in the records set by DSC athletes. The events at DSC reflect its tradition—in homecoming ceremonies, aesthetic of- ferings and a wide variety of social activities. The most important establishment of tradition at DSC since 1918 has been the continual improvement of academic offer- ings. Beginning as a State Normal School in 1918, DSC has experienced continual growth and has maintained its statu as North Dakota s fastest growing college.
