Junior College

T.S. ,,_

THE JUNIOR COLLEGE first went into effect in the fall of 1929 with Professor J. G.

[as]

Eldridge as dean. Professor T. S. Kerr, professor of political science, was appointed dean in the summer of 1931. This school was organized to give a more general foundation to students before they were forced to specialize, and attempts to give them two years of work in as many departments as possible in order to assist them in choosing lines of specialization later. It furnishes a broader cultural foundation. All students who plan later to enter the College of Letters and Science, the School of Business Administration, or the College of Law, must take their first two years of work in the Junior College. This, its third year of operation, has proved the system to have been more than successful. It has practically the same faculty as the College of Letters and Science. The additional list of the faculties of the two schools follow: Dr. Eugene Taylor, Professors J. R. Bender, W. H. Bunch, J. P. Wymer, mathematics; General E. R. Chrisman, Captains W. A. Hale, H. A. Henkle. Lieutenant J. W. Sheehy, Bernt Neilsen, Sergeant Lonie Woods. Sergeant F. L. Barnum, military; Dr. J. G. Eldridge, Dr. Henrietta J. Tromanhauser, Professors A. S. Howe, C. W. Ashby, A. H. Beattie, Vaughn Prater L.,ttig, modern languages; Professors Carleton Cummings, Isabel W. Clark, Walter Mueller, Berenice Barnard, Agnes M. Bothne, Dorothy Frederickson, Miriam H. Little, Raymond C. Miller, music; Professor C. W. Chenoweth, Janet Montgomery, philosophy; Dr. G. W. Hammar, Professors G. L. Luke, L. H. Stauffer, physics; Dean T. S. Kerr, Professor J. E. Retherford, political science; Dr. H. B. Stough, Professor L. C. Glass, Professor Herman W. Steffens, zoology.
