Looking back at the opening of today ' s MSU ' s doors — once a solely agricultural college — MSU ' s Department of Agriculture has progressed to the use of the most modern tools to make American agriculture the most productive in the history not only of MSU, but also of man. The Forestry Department has im- plemented new biotechnologies to produce genetically superior trees, computer technology for analyzing, engineering technologies for low cost systems, and social science technologies to bring all these areas together. Not only does MSU ' s undergraduate pro- gram provide for the artistic development of its students, but the Graduate Department also places great concern in the advance- ment of quality in art, music, drama, and other areas of artistic endeavor by im- plementing these areas into all aspects of its curricula. MSU: State of the Arts — a perfect sum- mation for an institution highly respected as a technologically progressive university dedicated to the development of its pro- ducts. This development has hopefully been instilled into the lives of each and every stu- dent of MSU, thus preparing him her for a productive life in a challenging world. ff The previous handcolored photos were painted by Karen E.
