Bp Kathryn Ldpham

The University OF Washington is
the largest institution of higher learn

able in the Western States may BIZ
obtained.
Whether the student desires lib
eral or special course he will fine

here are: the college of liberal arts
science, school of law, education, Ii
brary school, college Of business ad.
m;nistration, school of journalism
college OF engineering Of fine arts
fisheries, forestry, pharmacy, and the
graduate school.
To be admitted to any Of these col
leges an average high school grade OF
two thirds above eighty is required
This average must be maintained ir
every college course. The scholastic
standing of this university is so high
that recommended student may en-
ter any college in the world. This
distinctive factor cannot be claimed
by mary eastern colleges and is claimed
by only very few western colleges
Besides being the best western col
lege scholastically, it is known nation
wide for its athletics, which include
every sport.
Its advantageous location in large
city is but another factor in its favor
This brings the student in contac,
with the best in art, literature, music
people, and experience.
All these facts-the large number
of, courses offered, the high scholastic
standing, the renowned athletics, and
its location, 60 to make it the best
college in the west. That is why
every student who desires really the
best education should 60 to the Uni
versity of Washington.
WHY GO TO WASHINGTON
STATE COLLEGE
By Adoiph Swanson
A majority of the students in this
district who intend to 60 to college
will no doubt find it necessary to
work part of their way through.
Therefore they will want to attend a
school where they can receive the best
instruction at the lowest cost possible.
Certain conditions at the Washington
State College make it the most favor
able selection for such students. To
enable more students to attend the
State College the cost Of tuition and
fees has been made as low as possible.
Dormitories and dining halls have
been provided where room and board
can be had at small price.
No doubt the majority Of the young
