PROGRESS STRUHS was introduced in the State Assembly on January 8, 1931, providing for the establish¬ ment of a four-year college in Sacramento, this school to be known as the California State College. After a vigorous battle, the bill was defeated. Revived in the spring of 1935, it met with a similar fate. In 1936 the auditorium and fine arts building was erected. Later in the same year construction of the library and the men’s gymnasium was begun. Two years later, in 1938, the aeronautics building, the home economics and science wings, and the cafeteria were erected. A record graduating class exceeding 600 received sheepskins in 1940. This year marked the termination of Dr. Lillard’s long tenure of service, and Dr. Richard E. Rut¬ ledge succeeded to the presidency. Enrollment reached an all-time high in the fall of 1941 with 3,362 students at¬ tending daily classes. The newest addition to the campus, the shop building, was con¬ structed in conjunction with the national defense program. A revision in local policy resulted in the formation of the Sacramento Unified City School District, with the jun¬ ior college installed as the top rung on the city’s ladder of free public education. The horizon, already dimmed by the war, was further darkened by the untimely death of Dr. Rutledge in the spring of 1942. He was succeeded by Dr. Nicholas Ric- ciardi, the present leader of the college. In 1944 the City Board of Education passed a resolution officially changing the name of the institution from Sacramento Junior College to Sacramento College. Thus have passed three decades of uninterrupted progress. From an off-in-the- corner wing in the high school in 1916, the college has consistently grown to reach its present proportions. The buildings as they stand today rep resent an aggregate expendi¬ ture of more than $1,500,000. Records indicate that 23,286 individuals have been en¬ rolled during this thirty-year period, of whom approximately 5,000 obtained graduation diplomas. Gazing satisfyingly over the past record, we can visualize further progress and further expansion. Perhaps the hopes of many of the city’s civic leaders that Sacramento College be elevated to a four-year institution will one day become reality.
