Junior

at
the
annual
meeting
of
the
Association
of
Canadian
Unl
versities
at
Hamilton
last
year
The
scholarly
and
witty
dean
is
a
pioneer
of
the
trend
toward
junior
colleges
in
Can
ada
and
his
was
the
first
pub

Ed
As
the
name
implies
junior
colleges
as
they
first
appeared
early
in
tlic
century
offered
the
first
two
jears
of
the
normal
four
year
undcrgradulc
degree
program
Very
soon
however
they
began
to
take
on
oerloncs
vhich
varied
from
community
to
community
as
courses
of
a
vocational
nature
were
added
The
more
popular
name
today
Is
community
college
although
junior
college
may
be
carved
over
the
entrance
or
designated
in
the
charters
These
schools
now
distinguish
their
two
func
functions
¬
tions
by
calling
them
transfer
to
a
university
and
terminal
indicating
the
graduates
read
readiness
¬
iness
to
go
out
to
an
occupa
tion
As

ment
grew
many
formerly
shapeless
institutions
of
a
pri
private
¬
vate
nature
such
as
boarding
schools
and
finishing
schools
were
swept
into
the
system
so
that
today
the
two
great
com
munity
college
streams
are
usu
usually
¬
ally
designated
as
public
or

as
many
of
the
older

sponsored

UPWARD
EXTENSION
The
public
junior
colleges
are
best
exemplified
by
those
of
California
or
Washington
and
arc
usually
considered
to
be
an
upward
extension
of
the
high
schools
rather
than
as
down
downward
¬
ward
reaching
of
the
univer
university
¬
sity
The
California
and
Wash
i
n
g
t
o
n
college
districts
are
either
amalgamations
of
a
num
number
¬
ber
of
school
districts
in
an
area
frequently
a
valley
or
an
association
of
school
districts
working
with
one
city
district
which
actually
organizes
the
college
Emphasis
on
what
the
college
teaches
varies
greatly
Most
of
them
offer
university
transfer
courses
but
with
varying
de
degrees
¬
grees
of
efficiency
as
shown
by
surveys
of
students
who
go
on
to
university
with
their
associ
associate
¬
ate
in
arts
or
associate
in
sci
science
¬
ence
certificates
Normally
to
keep
standards
at
a
reasonable
level
district
associations
of
accreditation
are
set
up
Accreditation
is
awarded
on
the
basis
of
staff
qualifications
student
load
quality
of
the
plant
and
other
considerations
Just
as
strongly
many
col
colleges
¬
leges
lean
to
the
terminal
cours
courses
¬
es
One
college
in
Bellevue

is
devoted
almost
entirely
to
nurse
training

in
Eve
Everett

rett
Wash
is
geared
to
me
mechanical
¬
chanical
training
for
the
Boe
Boeing
¬
ing
plant
In
California
I
have
seen
everything
from
oil
rigs
clanking
in
the
front
yard
to
supermarket
market
setups
to
train
cashiers
One
huge
hall
looked
like
an
invasion
from
Mars
with
row
after
row
of
space
helmets
with
what
ap
appeared
¬
peared
to
be
women
sticking
out
underneath
After
all
beau
beauty
¬
ty
culture
is
culture
of
a
sort
NOT
NEGLECTED
Yet
the
transfer
aspect
has
not
been
neglected
in
California
In
fact
there
is
an
increasing
emphasis
on
it
as
the
universi
universities
¬
ties
raise
their
entrance
re
requirements
¬
quirements
They
will
accept
A
and
B
students
but
expect
the
Cs
and
lower
to
go
through
the
junior
college
mill
first
Contrary
to
common
belief
the
failure
rate
in
the
first
quar
quarter
¬
ter
or
semester
at
a
junior
col
college
¬
lege
is
almost
as
high
in
Wash
Washington
¬
ington
as
in
our
provincial
de
partmentals
However
an
at
tempt
is
made
to
reorient
the
failures
within
the
system
to
technical
and
other
programs
They
are
all
college
students
and
wave
their
pennants
and
make
the
team
and
play
in
the
band
even
if
they
are
carpen
carpenters
¬
ters
or
waitresses
It
was
this
composite
type
of
college
that
appealed
to
the
people
of
Lethbridge
who
felt
that
a
city
our
size
25000
then
and
35000
now
should
have
a
college
with
a
Calgary
branch
of
the
University
of
Alberta
140
miles
away
and
the
Edmon
Edmonton
¬
ton
campus
of
the
U

Dr
S
V
Martora

then

at
Washington
State
Col
lege
at
Pullman
was
called
in
during
J951
to
survey
the
area
and
he
pronounced
a
Washington-type
college
feasible
By
1956
a
few
citizens
in
Lethbridge
had
decided
to
go
ahead
with
the
venture
This
was
probably
the
key
to
the
whole
development
Lethbridge
has
some
of
the
best
cat-bel-lers
in
Canada
By
visits
to
American
colleges
by
dragoon
dragooning
¬
ing
the
superinten
dent
of
schools
of
the
city
of
Lethbridge
and
his
assistant
into
formulat
formulating
¬
ing
some
plan
and
by
visits
to
neighboring
school
divisions
a
I
junior
college
area
was
set
up
consisting
of
about
eight
or
nine
school
divisions

been
going
on
all
the
time
Leth
Lethbridge

city
schools
wore
being
stocked
with
teachers
with
mas
ters
degrees
The
dean
of
arts
of
the
University
of
Alberta
later
ice
president
and
now
president
Dr
W
H
Johns
had
worked
out
a
formula
for
dil
sions
of
time
between
high
school
and
university
work
And
somehow
he
had
pre
prevailed
¬
vailed
on
the
men
at
the
univer
university
¬
sity
to
smile
benignly
on
us
Al
Although
¬
though
some
had
their
doubts
and
they
told
mc
about
them
all
co
operated
in
the
most
sa
tisfjing
fashion
Nccr
were
we
patronized
never
held
in
con
tempt
nor
treated
like
a
poor
relation
The
minister
of
education
A
O
Aalborg
was
just
as
enthu
enthusiastic
¬
siastic
but
he
was
interested
mostly
in
the
terminal
typo
of
education
Although
Lethbridge
Junior
College
went
into
operation
in
1057
the
Public
Junior
Colleges
Act
was
not
passed
until
1958
By
definition
public
junior
col
colleges
¬
leges
are
for
the
purpose
of
teaching
subjects
of
university
level
not
higher
than
the
level
commonly
accepted
for
the
first
year
beyond
University
of
Al
Alberta

berta
matriculation
in
a
course
leading
to
a
bachelors
degree
or
for
teaching
other
subjects
of
a
general
or
vocational
nature
not
provided
in
the
high
school
curriculum
of
the
province
Hence
one
may
see
that
Al
Alberta
¬
berta
junior
colleges
are
lim
limited
¬
ited
to
one
year
instead
of
the
traditional
two
and
are
dedi
dedicated
¬
cated
to
vocational
education
which
brings
us
within
the
scope
of
Bill
C49
providing
for
fed
federal
¬
eral
aid
to
the
provinces
in
con
construction
¬
struction
of
vocational
training

The
new
building
we
are
erecting
thus
is
built
partly
under
the
provisions
of
Bill
C49
and
partly
under
the
Alberta

TEACHER
SHARED
The
problem
of
junior
col
colleges
¬
leges
in
Alberta
becomes
obvi
obvious
¬
ous
If
we
offer
only
Mathema
Mathematics
¬
tics
200
then
we
must
have
an
instructor
acceptable
to
the
uni
university
¬
versity
in
another
subject
say
in
physics
or
a
teacher
who
can
be
shared
with
the
high
school
As
long
as
we
occupy
the
same
building
as
the
high
school
the
problem
is
not
too
great
but
a
new
building
3V
miles
away
means
little
sharing
of
faculty
We
started
with
only
38
students
25
of
them
full
time
university
five
part
time
and
eight
terminal
business
educa
education
¬
tion
However
with
growth
the
problem
of
staffing
becomes
easier
We
now
will
have
two
teachers
in
English
two
in
his
history
¬
tory
one
whole
in
mathema
mathematics
¬
tics
Next
session
we
shall
not
have
one
teacher
shared
with
the
high
school
The
addition
of
a
second
year
would
certainly
simplify
staffing
Many
problems
arise
with
regard
to
an
attempt
to
inte
integrate
¬
grate
high
schools
and
colleges
The
college
seven
month
course
does
not
fit
with
10
m
o
n
t
h
courses
at
the
high
school
nor
does
teaching
on
Saturdays
be
become
¬
come
anything
but
a
cross
to
be
borne
You
have
never
seen
a
sadder
sight
than
teachers
working
through
the
Easter
ho
lidays
That
is
the
most
un
kindest
cut
of
all
Now
the
problem
will
be
how
to
occupy
the
teachers
in
May
or
June
We
shall
probably
stay
with
the
high
school
two
month
holiday
as
junior
colleges
do
not
do
research
I
should
like
very
much
to
see
a
longer
year
possibly
in
two
semesters
As
far
as
I
can
find
Canada
has
the
shortest
university
term
in
the
world
TEACHER
MINIMUM
Our
relations
with
the
Unlver
sity
of
Alberta
have
developed
to
the
point
where
we
admit
register
teach
and
grant
cre
credits
¬
dits
on
our
own
recognizances
Terms
of
our
affiliation
are
as
follows
A
minimum
of
six
teachers
giving
the
major
part
of
their
time
to
college
work
Teachers
must
hold
r
mas
masters
¬
ters
degree
or
equivalent
in
the
main
field
of
instruction
All
teachers
must
be
ap
approved
¬
proved
by
the
committee
on
junior
colleges
Library
and
laboratory
fa
facilities
¬
cilities
must
be
up
to
univer
university
¬
sity
standards
in
the
courses
taught
Admission
conditions
must
be
those
of
the
University
of
Alberta
60
per
cent
average
College
students
will
write
the
same
final
examinations
as
university
students
This
means
that
course
number
content
and
texts
are
identical
to
those
at
the
University
of
Alberta
in
Edmonton
The
interpretation
of
the
fore
foregoing
¬
going
has
led
to
varying
prac
practices
¬
tices
regarding
marking
Be
Beginning
¬
ginning
instructors
usually
go
up
to
mark
with
the
gang
to
learn
the
ropes
After
that
they
mark
at
homes
and
may
or
may
not
send
the
papers
in
for
checking
One
department
has
insisted
on
marking
all
papers
since
we
started
GOOD
RECORD
is
in
what
our
students
do
in
the
succeeding
car
This
is
why
I
write
to
all
universities
that
accept
our
students
to
find
out
how
well
they
have
done
They
have
never
failed
more

know
the
kind
You
also
see
them
in
the
comic
books
They
show
a
character
in
his
or
her
underwear
and
then
there
are
accompanying
uniforms
suits
and
dresses
that
the
child
can
cut
out
and
fit
to
the
figure
I
wanted
to
do
a
picture
of
the
prince
as
a
lot
of
people
know
him
a
man
with
a
lot
of
different
uniforms
Lyall
Watson
director
of
the
gallery
showing
this
and
other
Fantoni
paintings
said
This
young
artist
has
great
promise
He
said
there
have
been
in
inquiries
¬
quiries
by
posible
purchasers
but
no
actual
offers
Prince
Philip
of
course
did
not
pose
for
the
picture
The
artist
said
he
did
it
from
photographs
and
imagination
A
Buckingham

spokesman
said
it
was
highly
unlikely
there
would
be
any
royal
comment
After

There
are
several
problems
Teachers
may
remain
under
the
teachers
retirement
fund
but
no
pension
scheme
has
yet
been
worked
out
for
non
teachers
Our
people
want
a
portable
pen
pension
¬
sion
a
la
university
even
though
it
is
not
so
good
as
the
teachers
plan
With
an
enrolment
of
162135
in
university
classes
we
can
function
well
without
attach
ment
to
a
high
school
We
arc
increasing
staff
so
that
next
car
wc
should

full

university
teach

because
that
is
where
our
instructors
go
In
provinces
with
a
Grade
13
an
excellent
two
year
junior
college
system
could
be
set
up
with
no
initial
attachment
to
the
high

except
in
the
way
of

commodation
We
dont
know
just
how
far
our
vocational
part
will
devel
develop

op
because
wc
arc
not

as
all
others
under

in
Alberta
are
Wc
may
develop
along
the
lines
of
our
US
model
or
develop

is
closer
to
a

school
LATERAL
SPREAD
Our
expansion
in
courses
has
been
what
might
be
classed
as
a
lateral
spread
Wc
had
first

o
n
arts
and
science
including
the
courses
leading
to
law
medi
medicine
¬
cine
and
dentistry
nursing
and
household
economics
By
add
adding
¬
ing
a
few
more
courses
we
will
be
able
to
offer
commerce
All
this

We
feel
that
in
the
Lethbridge
area
the
college
has
filled
a
need
and
that
other
areas
in
Alberta
could
follow
a
similar
plan
About
150
students
would
ensure
a
staff
big
enough
not
to
need
sharing
with
a
higlrschool
This
is
the
point
we
have
now
reached
For
no
good
reason
the
head
of
our
institution
is
called
the
dean
This
has
proved
to
be
the
most
fortuitous
accident
in
our
whole
development
It
has
university
sound
but
not
the
pompous
sound
president
would
have
for
so
small
an
institution
In
Lethbridge
the
people
have
taken
to
the
name
and
the
dean
becomes
the
centre
of
all
things
educational
and
advisor
in
all
things
regarding
plans
for
fu
future
¬
ture
education
I
believe
that
the
junior
col
college
¬
lege
can
be
accepted
by
uni
universities
¬
versities
as
a
reasonable
solu
solution
¬
tion
to
undergraduate
crowding
without
lowering
standards
Per
Perhaps
¬
haps
the
terms
of
affiliation
may
not
need
to
be
so
rigid
as
ours
but
wc
have
not
suf
suffered
¬
fered
and
arc
pleased
at
the
progress
our
students
make
We
have
close
personal
touch
with
our
students
and
can
often
redeem
a
student
who
is
far
gone
We
sometimes
bet
on
a
marginal
student
in
promotion
and
have
been
let
down
only
once
I
think
we
are
here
to
