Mississippi Delta Community College - Retrospect Yearbook (Moorhead, MS)

Text from Pages 1 - 176 of the 1971 volume:

You . . . entered MDJC full of plans for the year ahead. Remember the relief you felt when your report card was sent out; your sore throat after the game you wanted so much to win; the joy of the snow — it meant a vacation; the long wait in the lunch line; and what about the time you went to the wrong class at the wrong time? You . . .• recalling a face unknown, that was soon to become a friend nith whom you would share your room, your thoughts, your hopes. These days were days to make new friends . . . to grow in friendship — eating, laughing, shar- ing experiences, and talking over problems. In Retrospect The irony of my life Is that my earthly days Hare all been spent going Unknown, unchosen ways, And doing work which I Had never planned to do, And living in some towns Of which I never knew. Yet strangely, life thus lived Need not be life misspent. For mine in retrospect Seems like the life God meant. — Perry Tanksley You. felt it was your duty, so you stayed up all night helping a friend with some homework that was due two weeks ago. Your friend was rewarded for all your intellectual work while you remained in the background , but that didn ' t matter, it was a friend. Remember those last minute speeches for speech class? And what fun there was in cooking exotic dishes in Home Eel You. held hands while walking to class . . . You sat on the bench studying under the trees. Remember the rush to finish the card game before the next class began; trying to find a parking space in a crowded lot; talking over hilarious incidents in the Grill. You. Packing — handshaking — crying, and leaving familiar faces. Sotne to be seen again and again. Others no more. Look back! Take a last look! Your very own Retrospect presents these moments to you and only you can know the real meaning of looking back and remem- t ering the f un. . . . Administration and Faculty Section editor: Rose Ann Stewart 17 Because of your untiring efTorts to help ev- eryone, because of your efTorts which so often are concentrated in addition to the realm of your classroom work, and because of the many characteristics which make you the person that you are, we, the 1971 Retrospect staflf, dedi- cate this our publication to you, Mr. Tom Branning.

The Women ' s Student Government As- sociation was organized through a com- bined effort of the house mothers and the women students of Mississippi Deha Junior College. Some of its purposes are to supervise and regulate all matters pertaining to the welfare of the women students of MDJC and to promote such activities as will aid the individual woman student. Among WSGA activities is a Big Sister-Little Sister program which helps freshman girls get acquainted with campus life.

PHI THETA KAPPA— Patricia Bingham, Susan Ten- het, Kay Carr, Mary Jane Dame. Membership in the Beta Alpha Society is open to all students who carry a minimum load of fif- teen hours and who attain a 3.5 average or better.

Later it began to be commercially printed. The name was changed to the Delta Herald in the Fall of 1970, to better represent the school. Bob Weston, a Leland freshman, submitted the name that was selected by the members of the paper staff to serve MDJC for future years.

Troni the first pages on, effort was made to unify the book into a flow that would be evident even in the final sections. The class section, the sports section, and the final epilogue evoke the same ideas and moods found in the opening section, and the pages which are sandwiched between them are a detailed ref- erence of you at MDJC.
