The junior college movement applied to Florida

What are these institutions called junior colleges? Why did they originate and why do their numbers continue to increase? What are their purposes, aims and philosophies? Are they fulfilling their destiny in Florida? These are questions which have been uppermost in the mind of the writer since he first entered a junior college as a student in 1935 and as a member of a junior college faculty in 1940. In the following paper he has made an honest effort to answer to some satisfaction these questions. It is obvious that a final answer is not possible, for in the field of education in the United States there is no institution which is changing more than the junior college. / Typescript. / "May, 1949." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts under Plan II." / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 39-40).
