j Foreword NESTLED within the corporate bound- ries of one of the west’s most ambitious cities, Long Beach State College reflects Long Beach’s “International City” theme as a mirror reflects the beauty of a famous starlet. Long Beach began as a pinpoint of civil- ization and has grown into a sprawling, impressively successful metropolis. Its his- tory is relatively short but colorful and dynamic—and its future is full of promise. Similarly, Long Beach State began as a minute point on the nation’s educational map and has blossomed forth into an ef- fective, steadily growing institution of higher learning. Most consider our campus as fine as any—and as the future brings further growth and additional fame in all segments of the college program, Long Beach State will become known as the academic gem of the International City. International trade, an international beauty contest, cultural and social ex- changes among nations are all part of Long Beach—and this is reflected within the LBSC student body. We have students who come from the corners of the world to study at our growing college in this mush- rooming metropolis. Long Beach is growing toward a fan- tastic future—and this college is the re- flection of that growth. Turn the pages as we eiiter the mirror . . . 2
