THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Junior Colleges' Popularity Shown by Rapid Growth
K. U. Committee Reports Doubled Enrollment Last Two Years in Kansas
Junior college enrollment in Kansas has more than doubled in two years it is indicated in a report compiled by the University of Kansas committee on junior colleges, and submitted to the University faculty today.
Eight municipal or public junior colleges in the state, fully accredited to the University, this year enrolled 1141 students—791 in the first year courses and 350 in the second year. In 2018, for the year 1924-25, the number were 447. Five private junior colleges enrolled 195 this year.
Independence public junior college and Heston College, Hesston, Kan. were added to the list of accreditee colleges this year.
Public junior colleges, other than those mentioned are at Arkansas City, Coffeyville, Fort Scott, Garden City, Iola, Kansas City, and Parsons. Private colleges on the approved list include Central college, McPherson; Highland College, Highlandy; Paula College, Pooh; and St. Mary's College, Leavenworth.
More Teachers Used
The average number of teachers in the public junior colleges is eight as against seven last year, the report says. Forty-nine of the 61 teachers have their master's degree—18 from the University of Kansas as against 12 last year; three each from Leland Stanford and Chicago Universities, two each from Columbia University, Iowa State College, and the state university of Iowa, Mississippi, and Nebraska. Another list of universities from high rank. One instructor has a PhD from Bryn Mawr.
The average salary paid all the teachers in the public junior colleges is $2,085.18 as compared with $2,105.10 last year and $2,048.52 two years ago. All of these teachers are offered in 20 different departments, of which six are offered in all eight schools. Most of the teachers offer courses in more than one department, but with the increasing enrollment in the junior colleges, instructors will be able to devote their time to the courses of their special departments.
Chief Problems Made Known
The committee asked executives of the junior colleges what their work problems were. Among the repliers "It is difficult to developappropriate faculty for a significant percentage of our student body changes from year to year." "The fact that practically all students are living at home and have their home and social outside the school life, makes it difficult to get the right students out of all students in school activities."
"To provide a course of study broad enough to meet the needs of all who wish college work."
"Selection of superior faculty; convincing the student body that college is not high school; providing diverse educational programs; creating real college atmosphere."
"To determine how many and to what extent completion course should be offered in our curriculum. It is very evident much more work of that type should be offered than we are giving at present."
Junior Colleges Commended
as is attested by the reports they make.
Commenting on this report, Prof. E. F. Engel, chairman of the University's committee, pointed out that the junior colleges are doing a splendid work in their several communities, as is attested by the reports they
"Junior college executives comment on the lack of 'college spirit,'" said Professor Engel. "This is not to be wondered at, when one considers that junior colleges usually are housed in the high school building.
"College spirit" may not be a necessary thing after all. Inability to develop it in the junior college may be one of the causes of the development of another and perhaps better objective for the junior college—a higher place of general education for young people of many communities.

There are 600,000 Latin students enrolled in fourth ranking second with 540,000, Spanish third with 333,000, German fourth with 40,000 and Greek fifth with 11,080.
