3)1 AL Published by the students of Montreat College Volume IX MONTREAT. N. C.. MARCH. 1935 Number Montreat College Dormitory The Junior College Note: The following is part of an article by Dr. Frank I Howard Richardson, published in The As fieri If Citizen: The Montreat Junior College, whose line new administra- tion building was recently begun, is definitely in keeping with the new educational trend in stressing the junior college as its main contribution to the constituency that has supported it in the past. The junior college movement has been steadily gaining in strength, popularity, and recognition by educators since its in- ception. sometime around the change of the century. President Harper, the predecessor of President Hutchins of the Univer- sity of Chicago, is known as the founder of this significant new factor in the preparation of young people for life; and in the third of a century that it has been demonstrating its reason for being, it has gained many enthusiastic supporters among the senior college authorities, John Hopkins University being among the strongest advocates of the new step in the educational (system.

In the first place the classes are distinctly smaller at Mon- treat than at the average senior college. 30 being the maximum as compared with an average of 60 in the larger institutions. This means of course that every girl gets a degree of individual attention that is manifestly impossible in the mass production necessary in handling larger groups. Then. too. Montreat will never be allowed to grow numer- ically beyond the point at which it is no longer possible for any student not to be personally known by every instructor. Turning to the student and away from the faculty, we notice a maturing of the junior college student during the two years she is in attendance that is not all paralleled by the fresh- man and sophomore in the senior college or university. Re- sponsibility must be taken quickly in the junior college; for there is not time to await the slow evolution of four years in (Continued on Page 8)
