CROWE Dean of Students MICHIGAN STATE COLLEGI- 9 HISTORY As the oldest land-grant college 111 the United States and the oldest agri cultural college in the world, Michi gan State College provides a technical, practical and cultural education for its student body, in addition to ex tensive research and extension serv ices to the people of Michigan . Now in its 94th year, Michigan State College has grown from one building and four faculty members to one of the largest universities in the nation. It has approximately 1,400 staff mem bers, 150 modern permanent and 988 temporary buildings, and a lmost 12,000 acres of land . In 1855, the course of study at Michigan S t a t e College consisted largely of learning the fundamentals of farming by cultivating the college grounds. Today, more than 50 differ ent courses of study are offered in the schools of Agriculture, Business and Public Service, Engineer ing , Home Economics , Science and Arts, and Vet erinary Medicine. This excludes the curriculum of the Basic College which has been hailed as one of the most progressive ideas for higher education in the nation today; and the Gradu ate School, which offers courses lead ing to the degrees of master of arts, master of science, master of music, master of fores try, doctor of philos- 10 THE HELMET ophy, and doctor of education. Michigan State College continually strives to expand its se rvices to the people of the state. Five sub -stations of the Agricultural Experiment Sta tion are maintained in various parts of the stat e, and more than 60 con ferences, short courses, a n d special courses are held each year on the Spartan camp us . During the 1948-49 year more than 40,000 persons attend ed these "extra-cu rricular" educational courses a n d meetings . Today some 15,000 students fro m Michigan and other states and from nations all over the· world are attend ing the college at East Lansing-11,000 of whom are housed on the campu s proper. With about 85 percent of these students coming from communities in every section of the state, Michigan State College is doing its part to fill the greatly increased demand of the younger generation for higher edu cation. In the agricultural, business and profession al fields, Michigan State Col lege has proved the people of the state of Michigan, pay ing dividends many times the appro priation for its maintenance made each year by the state and nationai governments. Noted for its demo cratic and friendly spirit, the stu dent body harmonizes with the college faculty to make Michigan State Col lege a first class educational institu tion. its worth to MICHIGAN STATE COLLEGE 11 Administration 12 THE HELMET ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS JOHN A.
