1987 Mid lander Middle Tennessee State University Murfreesboro, Tennessee 37132 Volume 62 We have what it takes, or do we? In a time when the educational systems are continually being criticized, how do we know that we have what it takes? Well, our recording industry management program has produced a compact disc, some- thing that no other school has accomplished. And look at our alumni. We ' ve produced a No- bel prize winning economist, James Buchanan, former U.S. Senator Albert Gore Sr., U.S. Rep- resentative Bart Gordon, and former Miss Ten- nessee Shelley Mangrum, just to name a few. So it ' s obvious that this prestigious institution of higher education has what it takes with such notable alumni. And the best is yet to come. In the pages of this yearbook you will find friends, teachers, class time, fun time, bad times, sad times, glad times, all times we ' ll carry with us throughout our lives. As you look through this just remember, We ' ve got what it takes. Opening ,
