Accordingly three monographs have been prepared The Literature of Junior College Terminal Education, Present Status of Junior College Terminal Education, and Why Junior College Terminal Edu cation The first of this series of basic monographs, a fully annotated and classified bibliography of more than 1,500 titles bearing on the subject of junior college terminaleducation, was published in March, 1941. The second in the series is the present monograph which aims to present a general summary of conditions in the field of junior college terminal education as they now exist with suggestions of major prob lems deserving further study and analysis.
