Smith University in its many faceted activities. In our commitment to the students served at this institution, it is fitting to note that The Wheel is Come Full Circle , in that we have completed a century of dedicated service plus another decade toward the second century. Also, The Wheel is Come Full Circle for our student population, from the less informed, less prepared student requiring protection and constant guidance, to the more mature student who now sits on important faculty and administrative committees; from the student and student faculty judiciary for disciplinary actions, to curriculum development and the Board of Trustees for University governance. I congratulate you on these achievements and the responsible manner which you have exhibited in so doing. This pictorial depicting the life and activities at the University will be a constant reminder of your years spent here as part of the Johnson C. Smith University family.
