This administration now completes its fifth year at Valdosta State College, and we believe that the year just ended has been the best of the five. One here gets the feeling that we are making progress. Our building program is on schedule, and when presently approved projects are completed, we will need only a gymnasium and a classroom building to equip us to accommodate between four and five thousand students. Our student enrollment experienced a rise during the year and our faculty increased slightly. We believe the quality of both faculty and student body has improved. The percentage of faculty holding the highest earned degree is still less than 40%, but this condition will improve, since many of our faculty members are actively pursuing the doctorate. The overall condition of the faculty is remarkably healthy. We have many teachers of solid value.
