The Class of '67 can boast, at least for one year, that it
is the largest to graduate from Southwestern State College.
A total of 532 people received their degrees Friday evening,
May 26, from President Al Harris in the 63rd annual convoca­
tion exercises. This was only the second time in Southwestern’s history that the 500-graduate mark had been reached.
Speaker for the occasion was Leo Winters, state treasurer
of Oklahoma.
More than one-third of the graduates, 182, were awarded
bachelor of science in education degrees. There were 124 re­
ceiving bachelor of science degrees; 92, bachelor of science
in pharmacy; 61, bachelor of arts in education; 47, bachelor of
arts; 26, master of teaching.
Through the years he also has
been an instructor in business,
and since 1960 he has served
as director of the placement
office.
Former students and friends
have established the Walter
Crouch Scholarship, and thefirst
grant from the fund is expected
to be made to a Southwestern
journalism student next fall.
After retirement, Crouchplans
to remain in Weatherford.

ciate professor of bacteriology'
at Kansas City College of Osteo­
pathic Medicine and Surgery. He

the medical technology program
here in 1954.
