In speaking along the same line
Mr. Thompson recalled the fact that
many cities In this state as well as
all over the nation have been built
up around Institutions of higher edu
cation. Forest Grove, Corvallls, Eu

out as well-known examples. "Not In

In explaining the purpose of mak
ing the local school a Junior college.
President Hleukney said, The Junior
college gives no degree. It simply
carries the students through what
would be termed the regulur fresh
man and sophomore yeurs of a col
lege and fits him to go on with a col
lege, university, technical or profes
sional education if he chooses or Is
able, or It equips him fairly well for
life. If he Is not able to go further.
Many young men are discouraged
from going beyond the high school
course by the thought of a long four
years ahead of them, while medical,
law and technical schools all over the
country are raising their standards
until they will no longer accept stu
dents who have not had a Junior col
lege course or Its equivalent."
The first report of the campaign
which was launched this afternoon
will be made at the meeting tonight.
