The Moberlyalgnior Colleee The Moberly junior College was organized by the Board of Educa- tion of the Moberly School District, after more than a year of study and careful investigation of the needs of this community for college work. The response by the people of Moberly and surrounding territory has proven the wisdom of this movement. - During the year just closing courses have been offered only for students doing the iirst year of college work. With the opening of the second year in September, 1928, additional courses will be offered, mak- ing the college a regular two-year junior college. All courses which are offered are accepted by the University of Missouri and by other universities and colleges of the middle west, hour for hour, making it possible for students to complete two years of stan- dard college wcrlc at a great reduction in cost. Thcse students who are preparing to enter professional courses will find little difficulty in selecting courses which will prepare them foren- trance into the particular professional course which they wish to enter.
