EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the idyllic campus of Oklahoma A&M College, now known as Oklahoma State University, in Stillwater, Oklahoma, during the 1930s. The image, circa 1940, showcases Murray Hall, a prominent architectural landmark and the heart of the university's academic community. Murray Hall, named after Governor Charles N. Murray, was completed in 1911 and served as the main administrative building for over six decades. Its grand neoclassical design, with its imposing columns and stately facade, reflects the pride and ambition of the young institution. At the time, Oklahoma A&M College was a thriving agricultural and mechanical university, dedicated to providing students with a practical education in various fields, including agriculture, engineering, and home economics. The college's commitment to hands-on learning and its focus on the latest technological advancements were essential in shaping the future leaders of the agricultural industry and the state of Oklahoma. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, where the pursuit of knowledge and the promise of a better future were the driving forces behind the dreams and aspirations of a community. The serene campus scene, with students strolling along the brick paths and the sun casting long shadows over the verdant grounds, invites us to reflect on the enduring power of education and the importance of preserving our rich historical heritage.
