STATE COLLEGE ill HISTORY uh l-uummllun-s k W QOKING back through the hazy mist of long ago we find, in 1897, the Cali- L fornia legislature establishing the State Normal School Only a little band an of Aztecs started then 'down that long ascending road of high endeavor which seemed to lead to a shining goal. i In the early Councils of the Aztecs in the Hill Block on F Street gathered those who first wisely directed the steps of the band and who flrst'gave them the inspiration of high example. Those who were destined to watch them grow from a small band into a great body gathered there. . .David Prescott Barrows, President emeritus of the University of California; Dr. William Kemp, present dean of the school of Edueation at California; Clarence Phelps, president of the Santa Barbara State College; Miriam Besley, present director of practice teaching 1 in the Detroit Teachers' College; and Vice-president Bliss, who, after counselling long and wisely, left the Aztec Council a short time ago. -:a I . I Pit am 6.5,. m The Aztecs gaew yearly in numbers and in courage. In their annuals appeared many achievements. The years rolled by and in 1921 the State Normal School .11: became the Teachers' College. In the same year came another change to the l Aztec band. In the educational fields around them had risen and prospered an- A other band: the HJunior College. In solemn council the two bodies merged; and by the council fire from then on met as the San Diego State College. Ill The shining goal seemed to have drawn nearer when the Aztecs received :14 word that State College had been raised in status by being given the privilege Ff of granting degrees after a four year course with the major in education. The 1 standards of the Aztecs went higher yet, when the term for advanced standing was increased from two years to three. The goal a step higher to reach is a four Iiu years' course, allowing two years of general training in the junior College and two W years of professional work tin the Teachers' College1 which will enable State College to give degrees in the various branches of learning. 66 In 1925 one hundred and sixty-four Aztecs will leave the walls of State Col- lege. Sixteen Aztecs will receive baccalaureate honors. The Aztec band has in- : . creased in numbers until it has become strong and powerful. It has faced and met m well many storms and has attained many dreams. In the council President Hardy, E; Dean Peterson, Dean Coldwell, and the faculty have given wise advice, and year g6 by year have brought the shining goal ever nearer. Across the vista of high en- deavor glimmer ever more brightly the shadowy outlines of a yet greater Aztec edifice, where will be carried on with greater zest the work which will bring the M Aztecs at last to their highest achievement.
