E Deminer as enrolling officer and adviser, is considered by some authorities as the most extraordinary development in the history of the American school system. It has grown from 9 schools in 1900 to about 525 at the present time. This almost phe- nomenal growth can mean but one thing. It is fulfilling a service that has been sought for since the development of our school system. That is. the Junior College affords an opportunity for those students who arc undecided as to their life's vocation, and for those who wish to later transfer to another school. There is perhaps no other established curriculum, which takes in a wider scope of subjects, or prepares one for a broader field of vocation, than the Junior College. Upon the completion of the general Junior college course one has obtained a foundation in chemistry, mathematics, social science, liberal arts. English. and a number of electives such as foreign language, history, and farm machinery, if one wishes to take tip that line of work (mechanical engineering for instance). For a major in a subject the student is permitted a choice from a large group. The General Junior College, if one includes certain suggested subjects, may be applied as a prerequisite to cither chemical, electrical, mechanical, civil or mining engineering. It may also, with a few alterations, be applied to law. journalism, pre-dental, or pre-medical work. For the commerce student, a diploma is offered for the completion of two years' work. This is spoken of as the Commercial Junior College. Another distinct advantage to the student is that the Junior College credits are more readily accepted by other schools than credits of indi- vidual or unrelated subjects. The Junior College, a course which parallels in a large part the North Dakota State Uni- versity Junior Division curriculum, therefore, is readily accepted as a boon to the students and consequently a boon to the dear old S.
