a message from the president i believe that 1953 will prove to be an historic year for the san diego junior college, because it was during the early months of this year that the plans and prospects of a separate and per- manent home for the entire program first began to take tangible shape. most of the land for the site has been purchasedg money has been voted for two major buildings and for physical educa- tion quartersg and the architect's plans should soon be on the drawing boards. there is also evidence that the people of san diego are at last beginning to appreciate the importance of a, strong junior college in the total picture of post high school education and to recognize that the absence of a junior college means depriving many young people of their educational oppor- tunity. this heartening progress would not have been possible without the devoted work of an outstand- ing faculty and the serious application to their daily lessons of many students, particularly the members of the class of june, 1953, who consti- tute our best evidence of the character and worth of our junior college. to these graduates i offer my most sincere congratulations!
