    PRESIDENT’S WELCOME Friends, Colleagues, and Students, Welcome to the 82nd Annual Mississippi Bandmasters Association State Band Clinic in Natchez. The other members of the MBA Executive Board and I hope that you will experience growth, new perspectives, and renewed aspirations for teaching and learning music in your community during this year’s clinic. I would like to wish all of the students in attendance a heartfelt congratulations on participating in this esteemed event. You represent the very best of the students from your band programs – I encourage you to take that sentiment to heart. Thousands of students have shared in this honor for the last 82 years. Many of you will meet friends this weekend that you will have throughout your life. Lastly, I encourage you to take this opportunity to enjoy making music with others and learning from some of the most outstanding teachers in our country. For members of our association, take the time to visit with the exhibitors and clinicians throughout the weekend. Take advantage of the clinics and presentations that are offered so that you may leave Natchez with new insights and perspectives that you can use with your students at home. Clinic is also a time to renew old friendships and foster new ones. I hope that veteran teachers will take the time to get to know those that are new to our profession and new teachers will seek out the guidance of those with more experience.

  • William Belton Murrah: President of Millsaps College and Southern Bishop in America’S Progressive Era
    Methodist History, 45:4 (July 2007) WILLIAM Belton MURRAH: PRESIDENT OF MILLSAPS COLLEGE AND SOUTHERN BISHOP IN AMERICA’S PROGRESSIVE ERA GERALD F. VAUGHN We live in an auspicious era! We live on a grand continent! In the mighty impulse that throbs in every department of human enterprise we may see the prophecy of more brilliant achievements than the past has ever yet recorded. But this prophecy is to have its fulfillment only when a thoroughly equipped scholarship shall come to the front and assert its right and power to lead in all great movements. W. B. Murrah, Inaugural Address, President, Millsaps College, 1892-1910 William Belton Murrah (1851-1925), one of the most distinguished Methodist educators and bishops in the South during America’s Progressive Era (roughly between 1890 and 1920), was an organizer and administrator rather than theologian. His life and ministry were dedicated to the growth of southern Methodism and he applied his organizational and administra- tive skills wherever needed most. So keen was his interest in higher educa- tion and so acute were his organizational and administrative skills, that he advanced the cause of Methodist higher education in the South more than anyone before him. Murrah was born in Pickensville, Alabama, to the Rev. Dr. William and Mary Susan (Cureton) Murrah. He graduated in 1874 from Southern University, then one of the finest institutions in the South, where he stud- ied not only arts and science, but also law and was a charter member of Southern’s first fraternity, Pi Kappa Alpha. Alfred F. Smith, familiar with Southern’s reputation, wrote, “Throughout his student years he was receiv- ing not only the intellectual enlargement which comes from a study of the classics, philosophy, history, and all that goes to the enlargement of the mind, but sitting under the inspiration of the mightiest men in the denomination, he was also imbibing the spirit of the Church.”2 Among those scholars were Allen S.
