The teacher training institutions of the state of Ok!ahoma during the early days of statehood were probably adequate for those days. Since that time many new problems have arisen; there has been great scientific progress. Nations of the earth are closer together in terms of transportation and communication than they ever were before. It has become necessary for the colleges of the state to progress along with the advancement in science, literature, industry, and the arts. There was a time when graduation from high school was accepted for teacher certification. The time came when a Bachelor's Degree was required in Oklahoma and finally the Master's Degree has become the goal of most public school teachers. This year the Oklahoma State Regents of Higher Education authorized the Oklahoma State Colleges, of which Northwestern is one, to offer a Master of Teaching Degree. Along with the progress in curricula and teacher certification have gone improvements inthe physical facilities of these institutions. Northwestern has recently dedicated a more modern and ample Health and Physical Education Building and is now in the process of constructing a modern Natatorium. This college will soon undertake to construct a student center where Wyatt Gymnasium now stands. The faculty members of this institution have constantly been upgraded so that many faculty members have Doctors' Degrees and nearly all of those who do not have the Doctorate have sixty or more graduate hours. The progress of the college is consonant with that made in the scientific and industrial world. Sabin C. Percefull, President eae = — SS DEAN _ A relative newcomer to the campus, Dean Leslie L. Thomason's energetic versatility and graciousness have won him the respect of Northwesterners and Alvans. aa Dean of Women, Myrna Boyce, is known C.E. Campbell, deanof student affairs, among Northwestern students as asympathetic is valued adviser to both administration and counselor and as one of the most inspiration- students because of his astuteness and his 29 al of lecturers. years of experience at Northwestern.

It has always housed a studious and fine looking bunch of girls and this year is no exception. Mrs. Lennie Heasley, the house mother, and proctor Carol Hunter, keep them quieted down when it is curfew time, because like all girls they like to have their fun when they are supposed to be ontheir best behavior. And when it comes to being ladies when they want fo it is hard to find their equal. The building was first put into use in 1939. There is a large dining room in the basement. The building will accommodate 130 women. Much of the social life of the college centers in the dormitory where there is an attractive parlor to provide settings for receptions, teas, and parties. The building is of brick and concrete construction, fireproof and thoroughly modern in every particular. VINSON HALL At right is a large number of the boys who live in the halls and rooms of the dorm. In their midst is the house mother, Mrs. Calhoun, who makes sure (or tries to) that the boys don't set off any fireworks with- out being detected. She is aided by Proctor Jim Stringer.
