They need an extra year of preparatory school to round up their secondary school training and to give them an introduction at least to some of the subjects which if JUNICR ASTLE HEIGHTS offers a year's worlc of college level, the courses being those required in the majority of colleges and universities in the fresh- man year, Every requirement for a Junior College of the South- ern Association of Schools and Colleges with respect to subjects, teachers, laboratory and library is met fully by Castle Heights. The dean of the department is Col. I. W. P. Buchanan, PhD., founder of Castle Heights and one of the best known educators in the South. rr The Junior Military College has a distinctive function in the educational structure. The sympathetic guidance and supervision which it exercises over its students save many a boy from the shipwreclc of failure. Ample freedom and recreational opportunities are provided fbr, but liberty is never allowed to degenerate into license. The military regime lends a tone to the entire life of the school which malces for lceenness and prompt- ness in meeting obligations fully and completely. The regularity of the life and the daily drills give physical development, poise and well being, which alone would justify the military institution. Following the example of the country's leading col- leges, our curriculum comprises English, Mathematics, History, Science and Modern Languages. The courses are as follows:- College Algebra-Our five months' course in this sub- ject constitutes a rapid review of Advanced High School Algebra, involving the topics, Theory of they will talce in college.
