The group was organized only one season ago and has Junior College Programs Draw Cross-Discussion Pennsylvania school offi cials yesterday heard detailed discussions on a topic that is an important issue in many of their home communities and throughout the State the community college. Dr. Elbert K. Fretwell Jr , as sistant commissioner for higher education in the State of New York, told 500 Pennsylvania edu cators attending the annual School Administrators Confer ence that, in his opinion, the community college should not be placed under the jurisdiction of the local school system. "A new community college needs to take on an identity of its own from the beginning:' he said, disagreeing with a theory advanced earlier by Dr. Robert B. Patrick, professor of education at the University. Patrick outlined the community college as an "extension of secondary education." He said that good high school teachers are qualified to teach the more advanced subjects offered in the first year or two of college and that in many cases common fa- Many_ netvi • paperbacks for required reading • the best in pocket literature • foreign newspapers WEST COLLEGE Ave. next to the "Corner Room" f Curtis r of the . taught I. tory in ssociate chestra. In in the concert Audi- cilities can be utilized Dr. Hugh S. Brown, professor' of higher education, warned that, - if a junior college is organized as a glorified high school, it is not a college " All of the speakers agreed that a careful study of the need for a junior college must be made before such a program is started. They said that a jun ior or community college must offer programs that will enable students to transfer to 4-year programs at other institutions. although surveys show a small percentage actually transfer. They cited the vocational pro gram of a junior or community college, especially if it is geared to meet the needs of the par ticular community, as very essen tial, and also mentioned as im portant a general education pro gram, particularly for adults seeking to continue their educa tion. By teaching skills needed in a community, the junior college ,can help to meet the unemploy ment problems many communi ties face. All of the sueakers agreed that a junior college should not be established to compete with existing facilities. SYLVANIA Two-Year Campuses (Continued from page one) and each student is admitted, not to a junior college, but to the Pennsylvania State Uni- versify." Walker hit at proposed bills in the State Legislature which have proposed establishing a system of junior colleges operated by the local school districts in coopera-, tion with the State Department of Public Instruction "The pas sage of any such legislation would give Pennsylvania four separate `systems' of state-supported high er education This would surely give us a record of some sort,", he said. We need, Walker said, to in crease the educational opportun ity in the Commonwealth in three d if fere ntareas-2-year associate degree programs, termi nal two-year programs at the collegiate level, and continuing adult-education programs. Walk er listed the many advantages of community colleges including the lower cost of tuition and other savings made available to the student at the local level.
