CAN IDAHO AFFORD A JUNIOR
COTLEGE2

1t is proposed to establish at Boise a
Junior college which will furnish, for
the graduates of the Boise high school,
courses of study equivalent in every
particular to the Freshman and Sophie
more work at the university The state
ment is made that these two complete
courses can be established at Boise
with very little additional expense to
the state of Idaho, and that it will not
cost Idaho much to aid the high
school at Boise to the extent of put
ting in two full years of college work
We think this is not true. We be-
lieve that it will cost Idaho a very
great sum of money all at once to es-
tablish a Junior college at Boise. We
think it will mean an outlay all at
once and Immediately of thousands up
on thousands of dollars to put Junior
think Idaho at this time is in no posi-
ton to spend the vast sum that would
be necessary to establish in Boise two
full years of college work, equivalent
in every particular to the Freshman
and Sophomore years at the university
What are the conditions in Boise now
and what are the elements necessary
to the establishment of Junior coll
lege?
The high school plant at Boise con-
sists of one large building on sin
gle block of ground in the heart of the
city. That building is composed of
two large modern wings and an old
central portion which will be torn
down and replaced by an appropriate,
modern structure as soon as funds |
are available.
The need for the central structure !
exists right now. Extensive as are
the wings and old building they are
not large enough for the demands al
ready made upon the equipment and
space by the very great and constantly
enrolment There is at
present no auditorium adequate for
assembly purposes. There is not ade
quate space or an adequate number
Of books for the library that is need
ed. 1t would be convenient and most
desirable for Boise to have larger
plant right now for the regular four
year high school students already en-
rolled When the huge Freshman
class enters next fall the resources of
he high school will be taxed. The
Boise high school is remarkably fine j.,
Institution and not the least Of its ac-
lievements is the signal ability it has
displayed in furnishing splendid four
'ear course to a very considerable ,
lumber of students with the compare
lively small plant at its service.
Yet the statement is made that with
cry little cost two complete years of
.ollege work could be put by the !,
tate of Idaho right into that already :

ment OF agriculture all ask for about

lures Of about 100000 more than
