SESSION OF 1918-'19
The Junior College
H. E. SPECK, Dean
Abilene Christian College has been re-organized to conform to
the standards and form of organization that are followed in states
where the Junior College has been given special attention. Our
present form of organization is approved by the educational authorities
of Texas, and is, we think, a decided improvement over the old in

high school and the first two years of college. Students finishing the
Junior College will be admitted into the junior year of any of the
higher institutions of learning in Texas without examination and can
complete the B. A. course in two years.
The four year courses are: Freshman (10th grade high school);
Sophomore (11th grade high school); Junior (college or university
Freshman); Senior (college or university Sophomore).
This arrangement is especially advantageous to students who are
deficient in high school work.

entrance units.
SOPHOMORE CLASS-This is the equivalent of the eleventh grade

finished the tenth grade or present at least ten of the fourteen standard
units.
JUNIOR CLASS-The following table is taken from the schedule
laid down in the Bulletin of the University of Texas on affiliated
schools. Fourteen units must be offered for unconditional entrance

with the understanding that the deficiency be made up the first
year. These units must be selected from the following:25
