L. D. Colvmiixn, Presin'en.t University of llinnesotu, BIl.I1l1CIfl1J0llS, Minnesota The junior college uiovelnent is probably the most important movement in the field of higher education, and in the lust five years the number of unior colleges in this country has increased nearly one hundred per cent. Two types one pri- vately endowed and the other representing the expansion of the public schools. are coming into existence. Neither the advocates of such schools, nor the public which supports them, regard them merely as preparatory institutions for the higher col- leges of I1 university. They do prepare for professional schools, but in uddition they provide all sorts of general training for iinishing courses. The chief handi- cap in the way of the junior colleges has been the lack of public support for them, and that, in my opinion, will be overcome as the colleges now in existence demon- strate their usefulness and value.

GEORGE F. Zoox, President The University of Akron, Akron, Ohio The increase in the number of junior colleges which have been established in recent years is clear proof of the prophecy of some years ago that the junior col- lege movement is the most significant movement touching the field of higher edlu- cation to-day. I am convinced that as a result of the development of the junior colleges the present universities and colleges will devote :1 large proportion of their energy and financial resources to advanced and professional education and that the present secondary schools will gradually take ovcr much that is now done in the first two years of college work. If this is accomplished we shall have 51 very much sounder division between secondary and higher education respectively. Stephens College is conspicuously prominent in leading the way toward this end. I con- gratulate the college on the progress which has been made under President YVood's Wise leadership. Page I9
