Each of you will want to evaluate your indi¬ vidual development during the four years spent at this college. You entered college with a de¬ sire to secure the tools with which to build a life with broadening interests, and productive usefulness. Let us review the concurrent growth of the college, designed toward assisting you in fulfilling this ambition. You entered the college in September 1948, when we possessed but one college building and twenty-nine acres of land . The campus has since been enlarged by approximately one hundred per cent. A men’s dormitory, modernly equipped, has been built, and residence purchased in which the administrative offices are located. The original building has been reconditioned by the enlarging and redecorating of the home cor¬ ners, and the construction of nineteen rooms in the South wing of the women’s dormitory. An Activity center, including store, post office, snack bar, dance floor and game rooms has been pro¬ vided. Funds for a Demonstration School, in¬ cluding kindergarten are available. Funds for a library building have been requested. The faculty has grown with the addition of a Dean of Instruction, supervisor of Junior High School Education, and full time instructors in Romance Languages and Geographic Science. The curriculum has broadened with the addition of courses for the preparation of junior high school teachers, and advanced courses in other departments. The sincere wish of the administration is that each of you will continue to broaden in knowledge, interests, and usefulness. AVe shall look forward to working with you, as Alumni, for the future development of our College. J. D. Blackwell

3 1 S ' . 7 6 FOREWORD This Book will receive many curious glances after being given out; some critical and some favorable. Perhaps a few autographs will be written here and there to make the annual more ersonal, enhancing its sentimental value. But ' eventually interest will fade and it will be seldom that these pages are separated. Weeks, months, even years will pass by, bringing in a tide of new friends and ambitions. Yet, once in a while, it is hoped that this, our Evergreen, may be displayed with pride. It may be shown to friends, family, or an old classmate with whom we may wish to reminisce. But whoever it may be, and for whatever reason the following pages are turned, it is sincerely hoped that the contents of our annual will convey the highlights of a happy college life together that has bound us with the gold of everlasting friendship. 1
