"MCLA not only gave me a great education in the classroom, it also gave me a chance to learn outside of the classroom. Whether it was on the baseball field, in the community, or working with different clubs and organizations MCLA gave me the chance to grow as a person. I use both my classroom and non-classroom education every day that I’m at work. I have to learn in every situation that presents itself, day after day. The meetings I attend are just like the small classroom settings at MCLA and allow me to feel comfortable. I prepare for those meetings just like I did for a test or a baseball practice. MCLA made me a better person. I feel more confident as a person with my MCLA degree."

MVP's - The Howard C. Smith Award (Baseball MVP) is awarded annually to the member of the baseball team who displays leadership, responsibility, and cooperation. Couple these qualities with a desire to excel, not only as an individual, but as a contributor to the overall effort and success of the team.

Howard C. Smith was a former trustee of the Massachusetts State College System and pioneered the promotion of Physical Education within the State College network. His leadership provided the State Colleges with the up-to-date facilities and finances necessary to support these programs. Smith also lead the way in the ultimate formation of the Massachusetts State College Athletic Conference (MASCAC).
