In the minutes of the Board meeting on April 21, 1925, we find that the trustees planned to convert the high school into a junior college. Superinten- dent J.S. Vandiver said that the only major change that had to be made in or- der to make the conversion was the building of an adequate Administration Building in or before 1927. Professor Claude Bennett of the State Department of Education cited sev- f eral reasons for establishing the junior college: the people of Mississippi are in favor of the idea of junior colleges; the rapid growth of consolidated schools; and the need for more colleges in the state. He said, I am convinced that Sun- flower County could make no finer investment than to establish a first class Junior College at Moorhead. In 1926 Sunflower Junior College was established. Sunflower County was the only supporting county at first. In 1928 Humphreys County became a support- ing county. In 1929 Leflore County became a supporting county. Even though the district, then known as Sunflower Junior College District, was composed of eight counties, not until 1961 did Washington and Sharkey Counties become supporting counties. In 1962 Bolivar, Issaquena, and Coahoma Counties joined the group of supporting counties. Mississippi Delta Junior College is now sup- ported by eight Delta Counties. In order for the name of the college more accurately to reflect the geo- graphic area that it serves, the Board of Trustees changed the name of the col- lege from Sunflower Junior College to Mississippi Delta Junior College in 1961. On July 1, 1964, Mississippi Delta Junior College District was legally defined as a separate juristic entity to be comprised of the counties of Bolivar, Coah- oma, Humphreys, Issaquena, Leflore, Sharkey, Sunflower, and Washington, therefore, allowing the Board of Trustees the authority to request the levy of taxes for the support of capital outley. It is interesting to reflect on the early rapid growth in enrollme nt. The first class in 1926 had an enrollment of 31. The 1927-28 class had 52, and the 1930 class shot up to 133. Students came from all over North Mississippi to attend the college. This year M.D.J.C. enters its fiftieth year of existence. Coinciding with our anniversary celebration is America ' s celebration of its bicentennial year. At the time of the Battle of Bunker Hill, Mississippi was still a part of the Louisiana Territory and a virtual jungle. The yearbook staff has tried to show the history of both our country and our school in the pages that follow. While we have emphasized coverage of our own school, we have paid tribute to our country with the use of patriotic symbols and spot color of red, white, and blue. STATE OF THE WORLD IN 1926 It is interesting to note the state of the world in 1926. Several of the domes- tic issues that were on the scene at that time were as follows: 1. A break in the price of cotton, which brought distress all over the lower South. 2. Rising prices for pork and beef. - . . .i 3. More and more people were moving off the farms. 4. The Ku Klux Klan was flourishing with approximately five million members. -• - , ,| _ 5. Because of the advancements in medicine, there had been a notable fall in the death rate and a notable increase in the birth rate. 6. Divorces-in the 1920 ' s-there were as many as one divorce for every five marriages. The family was on its way toward a breakdown. 7. Disturbing rise in crime; gangs; Al Capone, Dutch Schultz, and Legs Dia- mond led the followers. 8. Scandals-oil magnates bribed public officials. As you can see, the state of the world today is much the same as it was in 1926. Dormitories have seen many changes in the past 50 years (Top) Old girls ' dorm, (bottom) Stennis-Penrod Dormitory (Top) Old boys ' dorm, (bottom) Stonestreet Hail Fifty years ago here at M.D.J.C., tuition was free to all students liv- ing in Sunflower County. Students living outside Sunflower County paid a tuition fee of $25.00. Board, heat, and light fees amounted to $123.00. Some unusual fees that students had to pay back then were a doctor ' s fee of $5.00; li- brary fee of $3.00; medicine fee of $1.00; athletic fee of $5.00; lyceum fee of $4.00; literary fee of $5.00. Today most athletic activities, fine arts programs, and student publica- tions are free. The main exception to this is the $6.00 charge for the Retrospect. In 1939 one month ' s board was only $14.50. A semester ' s board was $58.00. Today we are paying $78.00 every six weeks for meal tickets. A boarding student pays $824.00, and a commuting student pays $206.00 for the entire year, not in- cluding books. Students also bought books back in 1926, but hopefully not at the prices we pay today! In its opening days the school had its own farm and raised its own beef, vegetables and dairy products. Because costs of operating college farms had become prohibitive, the Board ceased farm operation in the mid-sixties.

Coeds of the early eras wore long, below-the-knee skirts and sweaters. They loved wearing bobby socks and loafers or saddle oxfords. The styles of the 1930 ' s are ac- tually coming back today. The midi dress is very much in fashion this year. There aren ' t too many short-short dresses such as those worn in the late 1960 ' s and early 1970 ' s. In the 1940 ' s the men wore baggy, straight legged pants and skinny belts. White socks were typical and they usually greased their hair back. Today the guys wear either blue jeans or a nice pair of flare- legged pants. They wear wide belts, buckle shoes or tennis shoes. Male hair lengths range from the bottom of the ear to the middle-of the-shoulder.

Perhaps the main cause for this difference is the change in fashion over the years. Changes in the con- cepts of feminine beauty are depicted in this series of pictures of the campus beauties of M.D.J.C. from 1930 to date.

' . JBIg Above (1. to r.) The old Administration uilding, tiie old fountain, and the old Trojan Shield At M.D.J.C. ' s beginning, there were only four buildings, valued at $300,000. ' These buildings included the girls ' dorm, boys ' dorm, an ad- ministration-classroom building, and a gymnasium. The school grew gradually each year. During the school term of ' 39- ' 40, the investment in the school was around one-half million dollars. There were five dorms, an up-to- date gymnasium and a model dairy. In 1966 an extensive building pro- gram was begun. Eleven new build- ings were built. Now with the com- pletion of the ' 75- ' 76 school term, 50 years have passed. Our present phys- ical plant has more than twenty buildings. Our newest addition is the coliseum. Next in sight is an addi- tion to the Voc-Tech. The present value of our physical plant is $7V2 million. SOCIAL LIFE In 1926, social life for students was strictly supervised. Most of the student body resided in campus dor- mitories. The faculty planned the ac- tivities for the student. When at- tending a social event or public function, each group of students had to be accompanied by a chaperone. Even as late as the 1940 ' s dormitory students had to ask for permission to leave the campus, to go home on the weekends, or to leave with visitors. Even then it had to be an emer- gency. In earlier days Home-going was allowed only three times a year. Now, things are quite different. Commuters are in the majority among MD.JC ' ers. Social events are planned by students and faculty to- gether. Dormitory students may leave the campus when they wish. Self-regulatory hours have gone into effect this year for the girls. They can come and go as they please. DORM RULES AND REGULATIONS The rules and regulations of dorm life have changed somewhat from the beginning until the present time. Some of these changes were drastic, some much more subtle. In 1941 and 1942 the Sunflower Junior College Bulletin printed Ab- sence from the campus for the week- end is positively discouraged and forbidden except emergencies. On the next page of this same bul- letin was this announcement: The social life of the campus is directed by committees from the faculty. Also from these two years: Stu- dents will be allowed to shop in town and to attend public functions and social activities when properly chap- eroned. And in 1941-42: No stu- dent is allowed to leave the campus with visitors without special permission. Little changed from 1943 until 1945 when the rules became a bit more lenient. In 1945-46, Students must obtain written permission from parents in order to leave the campus at any time. Standing per- mits for visits home by dormitory students may be filed with the Dean of Men and Dean of Women by the parents of students. Parents and freinds were cordially invited to visit the school at all times, but Sunday afternoons from 3:00 to 5:30 are the most convenient times for visitors. Permission to entertain week-end guests must be obtained from the Dean of Men or Dean of Women. In 1946-47 rules were loosening with the times. Women students are allowed to go to town any after- noon of the week with the ex- ceptions of Saturday and Sunday af- ternoons. This was the only new rule during 1946-47. During the 1947-48 school year, no new rules were made. During the 1949-50 school year, no new rules were formulated, but some were stretched again. All women students and high school boys must obtain written permission from par- ents to leave the campus for visits out of town. Standing permits from parents for visits home may be filed with the Dean of Men or Dean of Women. All permits must be mailed by the parents directly to the proper dean. At any time when students give evidence of poor class work, the visiting privilege may be withdrawn. Dorm regulations have changed greatly over the years. Students now may have overnight house guests of the same sex on the week-ends when permission is granted by the Head Resident and a bed is available. Hours have changed drastically. Students living in dorms will have self-regulating hours. After 11:00 P.M., all students on campus must be in their dorms except to attend col- lege sponsored events. MDJC Secu- rity will admit students to dorms at 12:00 A.M. and 1:00 A.M. After 1:00 A.M. student wishing to enter dorm shall contact Security Officer on duty to gain admittance to dorm by presenting ID. -Residence Hall Regulations, 1975. Students can leave the campus without signing out, and they can go out of town without permission of their parents. Students can go home at any time. to Two is plenty, but three is a crowd (Above) As you can see, dances have not changed too drastically over the years Angie McArthur and Ervin Mar- (Below) This year ' s homecoming dance certainly reflects two important tin go through the buffet line changes-dress and dance styles Practical experience in agriculture classes was very much em- phasized in the early days, but the emphasis was on cattle farming rather than farm management School life is often marred by tests. Sweet three-word sentences to any student ' s ears are, Class is dismissed., Exams are over., and Keep your papers. Mrs. Thelma Hughes, Language Arts Department Chairman and a student here in the 30 ' s, revealed that exams in her college days were a traumatic experience. Mass ex- aminations were given. Everyone assembled in study hall. Teachers kept a close watch over the stu- dents. Nothing could be taken in to exam except writing instruments. All examination pads had to be bought before exams. The hardships of class now and then Fine arts programs have always been a major part of the col- lege curriculum but old-fashioned recitals have almost disappeared One ti-chnical .Vi ' s ha.H grow not even Mr. with the iatt ]2 t !acher and three training programs in the early n into a major vocational-technical divisif)n that P ' olcy could envision when this picture was made President W.B. Horton Even in 1928 Sunflower Junior College was already beginning to divide the students into two curri- cula-academic and vocational. Vocational students took such classes as agriculture and com- merce. All students took English, history, science, mathematics, and music or Latin. Students did not study basic data processing or electronic circuitry or medical lab- oratory technology in 1926, but there were courses in Expression and The Bible. The most common extracurricu- lar activities were physical educa- tion, band and glee club. According to the first college bulletin, the college offered ap- proximately seventeen courses in 1926. The 1976 M.D.J.C. Catalog lists over 280 courses. In 1926, M.D.J.C. had only twenty teachers, most of whom were single. The courses and teachers were called by titles other than the ones we use now. For example, a substitute teacher was called a supply teacher. Com- merce was the same as Business. These teachers lived on campus, and also served as dormitory su- pervisors. This would seem to make it im{)()ssible for them to be able to stay out doors and spoon. Why, what would the children think!

In Dedication To Mrs. Halbrook— she is one special part of MDJC I love you, dear, but read your text. All you have to do is The 1976 Retrospect is dedicated to a person who constantly brings happiness to our campus. This individual has given Mississippi Delta Junior College eight years of unselfish service as a language and literature teacher. Almost all students know and love this fine lady, even those who do not have her for a class. She has served as an energizing force in the lives of many students. In addition to her role as a teacher, she is an avid fan of the T.J. ' s. This interest stems from the fact that her son was the drummer for the TJ. ' s when he was a stu- dent at M.D.J.C. Since his graduation, she adopts the drummer every year. She is just as enthusiastic about sports and all other student activities. Some people believe that she is the most energetic cheerleader on camous. These are just a few of the reasons that the 1976 Retrospect is dedicated with pleasure to Mrs. Melba Halbrook.

Members, who join yearly, can affiliate with the Missippi Junior College Faculty Association. The local president appoints representatives to this state association. In addition to extending courtesies to faculty members that are ill, the Association traditionally has at least one yearly party for faculty and their family members. Richard Ches- teen, Laney Wooten, and Charlie Joiner drafted the first Faculty Association constitution in 1965. Then in 1967 it was expanded to take in non-professional members of the staff. The Faculty Association officers are (1. to r.) Mrs. Sidney Hines, Mark Pilgrim, and Mrs. Shelby Daughtry. Not pictured are Sam Stafford, Joe Carley, and Mrs. Mary Frances Caldwell. Security works for student safety 24 hours a day Dean Robert McClellan (right standing) and W.D. Mooney, Chief of Security, work with (seated 1. to r.) J.D. Smith, Jr., Vernon Harrison, and M.G.

Building Construction Technology was the first technical course of- fered on campus. But emphasis on training the stu- dent to be able to use his skills learned in school to earn a living for himself has always been a part of this college ' s purpose. The first president-J.S. Van- diver— insisted on training the whole person. We train the head, the heart, the hand, the health was his motto. Currently, over half of our student body is enrolled in the nine technical and eight vocational programs of the school. All vo-tech programs are set up to answer community requests and needs. The cotton gin management pro- gram is the only one of its kind in the nation. The nursing science technology curriculum has attracted the largest enrollment. A beginning class of about 50 students is selected each year from the 100 or so applicants. At present, technical students are training in data processing, drafting and design, electronics, building con- struction, medical laboratory, regis- tered nursing, secretarial science, farm management, and cotton gin management.

Historically, the Trojans have always been a win- ning team. The M.D.J.C. Trojans were the state football champions in 1926. In more recent years, the Trojans won the Mississippi football championship for two consecutive years— 1972 and 1973. The basketball and baseball teams have also been state champions in years past.

The 1927 and 1928 RETROSPECTS won the top award in state competition. When the student newspaper, THE SUNFLOWER PETALS, was founded in 1931, it was hand-let- tered and posted on the bulletin board. Among the early student editors of the PETALS was Frank Smith, who later was to become a U.S. Con- gressman from Mississippi. When the College changed its name, students voted to change the name of the newspaper to THE DELTA HERALD. The paper is now printed on campus by the vocational printing class. Publications workshop students quickly learn that the work of the journalist is never-ending. They pro- duce a bi-monthly tabloid paper, a faculty newsletter, and a town news- letter, and the yearbook. They also do the layout on the student literary magazine, AT PEN POINT.

We have tried to record the year ' s happenings in such a way that you can look back on fond memories in years to come. We included as many different people and activities as possible before our final deadline. We tried to make some changes in the format of our school annual, and we trust that you approve of our new ideas. Since this is M.D.J.C. ' s fifti- eth year of existence and America ' s bicentennial, we have incorporated some sig- nificant historical events and data in this book. We should like to express thanks to our sponsor, Laney Wooten, and to Les Lamb, photographer. The title page illustration was drawn by Jim Ellis, and the closing page was de- signed by Susan Melle Jackson. Typeface for this yearbook is Century Expanded. We used 30 point headlines, 18 point and 14 point subheads, 10 point body copy, and 8 point caption copy. Debbie Keith Ann Shelton Dale Stokes • I II
