To make its service to the community still more comprehensive it established in September, 1932, a Junior College. This has been estab­ lished for the educational advantage of young women who desire to pursue college work in a small institution, and is especially for those who, because of immaturity, or other reasons, find it impossible to attend as yet a four year college or university. Students fully qualified for college or university entrance may here pursue the studies of the first two years and be ready to transfer to the institution of their choice, entering as juniors. Or, if they prefer, they may end their college career with a two year diploma from St. Helen's Hall Junior College. The Junior College accomplishes its own type of cur­ riculum under better working environment than can be obtained at a large institution that more or less centers its attention on upper division and graduate work. Its advantages may be readily seen in the smaller classes and more frequent personal contact with instructors, as well as in the social conditions which are simpler and more successful. �St. Helen's Hall Junior College Buildings Our new Junior College has its own attractive, modern buildingj with airy classrooms, library, and social hall. Athletics take place in the large outdoor gymnasium. Sports Opportunity is afforded for tennis, basketball, archery, and swimming. The latter is offered at the school’s at­ tractive place on Lake Oswego, twenty-five minutes ride from Portland. Here the student may receive instruction from a competent life-guard in swimming, diving, life­ saving, canoeing, and in the handling of motor boats. Faculty The faculty of St. Helen’s Hall Junior College is made up of instructors who are specialists in their particular fields, and who are capable of drawing out and directing latent powers and ambitions of the individual student. This is extremely important since no school is stronger than its faculty. �St. Helen’s Hall Junior College THE FACULTY Rev. Jay Claud Black Sacred and Secular History S. T. B.
