MR. D. R. HENRY I would have this 1932 volume of the La Re- vista record first my personal appreciation of the privilege of serving the school as Principal and the gratitude which I feel for the welcome that has been extended me throughout this first year of my service. The attitudes of students, teach- ers and administrators have been so marked with graciousness as to make me feel at home from the very beginning of my associations with them. Next would I express the hope that this volume reflect in some way the distinctive character of Ventura Junior College. It has been my respon- sibility this year to survey the school critically and more or less impartially. Truly may I state that the better I have come to know the institu- tion the more have I been impressed with the distinctive features that mark its organization. Officially I would commend those workers who have been primarily responsible for this 1932 issue of the La Revista which promises to climax preceding publications. MR D R HENRY PR! NCIPAL MISS ADDIE BELLE LONG Another busy and happy year spent together. May I congratulate the Student Body upon the success of your initial year of self-govern- ment under the leadership of the Board of Corri- missioners. You have proven yourselves worthy of the responsibility entrusted to you in the past year — and capable of entering upon another year with ever greater expectations of achievement. You have been a cooperative, sympathetic and friendly group, and may I wish for you who will not be with us next year, success in whatever you may attempt, and to the Student Body of 1932-33, a year of achievement for V.

ADMINISTRA TI •B t l VAN DELLEN SUPERINTENDENT MR E L. VAN DELLEN When asked by your editor to make a state- ment for your Annual, I could think of nothing more appropriate than to give the contents of a letter which I received two weeks ago. This letter indicates that our Junior College is now thoroughly established and that its gradu- ates can compete with the graduates of any col- lege in the State. The letter is as follows: Dear Mr. Van Dellen: You will be pleased to know that the Board of Admissions, at the meeting of April 30th, 1932, held at the University of California, Berkeley, voted unanimously to remove the Ventura Junior College from the Provisional List . With kind personal regards, I am. Very sincerely yours, MERTON E HILL, Director of Admissions, University of California. MR. AMOS E. CLARK Three years. Acquaintance has just begun to develop into friendship. I doubt if there are more likeable students anywhere. In spite of numerous changes and more ups and downs, we have made notable progress away from childish- ness, toward real student body government. The adult controls enforced one law and the old whip will probably always necessarily be there, but the crowd of passengers should continue to work out activities for the promotion of good spirit, based on kindness to each other and all. There cannot be too much social-mindedness, appreciation of true rights and talents of others in this work-a-day world. May you continue to gladden the hearts of your elders by developing more and more in responsi- bility and real attainment. MR. AMOS E. CLARK DEAN OF MEN - j:r r ' j:r 10
