TO MAKE SCHOOLS COLLEGES.
Virginia Educators Also Plan to
Eliminate Entrance Examinations.

Plans for converting the old collegiate
schools into Junior colleges of "A1"
standing are under discussion by edu-
Gators attending the Virginia Associa-
ton for the Standardization of Schools,
in session this week in Harrisonburg,
Va. Under the old system, 1t Is ex-
planned, students who wished to take q
degree at any "A1" college, after hav-
ing jursued a course at a collegiate
school. were compelled to take a series
of examinations in order to be classi-
fed.
Under the proposed plan the student
graduating from the Junior college,
a preparatory school of certain
requisite standing-will be admitted
into the Junior class of a college.
Certain restrictions and qualifications
are to be placed on the junior colleges.
1t is believed by many Of those in the
conference that the plan will prove Of
great educational valVe in the southern
states.
