Reality Replaces a Dream New opportunities in technical and voca- tional training in agricultural and industrial fields opened for California youth on April 6, 1940, when the state board of education authorized a four-year technical college at Ca’ifornia State Polytechnic. Bachelor of science degrees will be offered starting in June, 1942. In accepting the authorization California Polytechnic pledged itself to maintain the primary objective of training young men for specific employment in agricultural and in- dustrial occupations; to retain the training on the project basis; and to strengthen and give full support to the present two-year and three-year curricula not leading to a degree. Although the addition of a fourth year of instruction will necessitate few immediate changes, the editors of El Rodeo are con- vinced that the board’s resolution has opened a new era for California State Polytechnic. They congratulate Julian A. McPhee, presi- dent of California Polytechnic, whose efforts during the past decade have resulted in this recognition. Di. Walter F. Dexter, slate director oj education, toas (it active lecder of the efforts to win jour-year recognition for the California Polytechnic course of study. He visited a student body assembly January 16. He is shown at left above with John Carrieaburu, student president; William Himmelman, student secretary; and President McPhee. Page 7
