During the past year it has experienced a splendid enrollment. It is recognized both by the State Department of Education and by the Association of Texas Colleges as a junior college of the ttFirst Class without condition or reservation. The graduates of the College may enter any of our senior colleges with full junior standing. Many of our graduates are likewise taking their places in industry and the armed services of our country. Some of the advantages offered by the TEMPLE JUNIOR COLLEGE are: H . The members of the faculty are scholarly and experienced and are prepared to render service of the highest order in the class room. N The classes are relatively small, which condition makes in- dividual instruction and personal attention possible. CAD . All students are taught by the heads of the department. F The expense is comparatively small, as the trustees are striv- ing to operate the college on a cost basis. Our low rates will enable you to save enough, during your two years here, to pay for your junior year at a senior college. 0 . Our young men and women may remain in their homes two years longer. F The extra-curricula activities are varied and afford oppor- tunity to the students for development in public speaking, drama, music and athletics. The aim of the TEMPLE JUNIOR COLLEGE is not only to give two years of highly efficient literary work, but to provide guidance, and vocational preparation, and to develop talents and character in our young people as well. To this program the trustees and the faculty of the institu- tion are dedicating their efforts. For further information see or write the Registrar.
