Swim Gyms   MEA Elects
Begin Again
President
The noteworthy "swim gyms" of
R. J. C. are on again. These affairs which have been successfully carried on in past years add
much to our social life. They are
the parties that everyone comes
to and everyone has fun at.
Don't worry if you can't swim because the gym' is open for the
volleyball enthusiasts. Fun is
guaranteed!
The Social Committee plans
swim gym nights for whenever the
facilities are available as long as
the attendance makes it worthwhile. They would like to plan
one a week; however, these plans
are still tentative.
Opening our season was the
gym night of Friday, November
14, from 7 to 10. Helping to
make it all a good party were
Bev Kesler, who was in charge of
requisitioning the gym; Don Capriotti, who was in charge of volleyball equipment; Sue Rye and
Helen Lawniczak, who were in
charge of chaperones, and Bill
Christopherson, who was the capable lifeguard.
Charles E. Singley, chemistry
teacher at R. J. C, was elected
president of the Junior College
section of the Minnesota Education Association at a workshop of
the M.E.A. convention held in the
Twin Cities October 22-24. He
will serve as president for two
years.
The first workshop was held in
the Union Building at the University of Minnesota on October 22.
The second meeting was held October 24 at Concordia College.
All 20 of the Rochester Junior
College teachers attended the
convention. There are 11 junior
colleges which are members of
the M.E.A.
Mr. Singley has been living in
Rochester with his wife and two
daughters, Joan and Barbara, for
29 years. He has been teaching
chemistry at RJC all that time except for three years during which
he served as Lt. Commander in the
Navy. While in the Navy he
taught in the engineering department of the Naval Academy at
Annapolis. When he first came
to RJC he was also coach of the
football team.

College open house program for American Education Week and Busi-
College open house program for American Education Week took
place in Coffman Hall Thursday evening, November 13. Mr. Charles
Singley acted' as Master of Ceremonies, and Dean Goddard gave
the opening address, entitled "Today's Concept of the Community
College." The talk traced the history of the development of junior
colleges and told of the changes that have taken place in the concept of the junior college. The Dean said that when Rochester Junior College was founded in 1915 it was one of only a dozen junior
colleges in the nation.
Rotary Club
Hears Dean
In his talk .to the Rotary Club,
on Thursday, November 13, Dean
Goddard, as part of the American
Education Week program, discussed the crisis ahead in education. He pointed out that classroom space and the increasing
number of trained teachers were
not up to the high birth rate. After showing charts on the high
birth rate in the United States,
and the rapidly increasing enrollment in schools, 'he pointed out
that before 1960, six hundred
thousand classrooms must be
built and that many additional
teachers must be trained before
we can adequately take care of
the children in kindergarten and
the twelve grades. Early in 1960
this increase in population will affect the colleges.
The present enrollment is a little over two million. The forecast of four million is based on
the rapid increase in college enrollment after each war. Two
years after World War I, the enrollment, increased forty per cent,
and two years after World War
II the increase was seventy-four
per cent.    It is expected that this

According to the Dean, at that
time the only purpose of the junior college was to provide the
first years of college work for
those who could not attend out-
of-town colleges. Relating an incident of his early teaching career, Dean Goddard said that
when he was made a member of
the Virginia J. C. faculty, it was
with the understandnig that he
would attend the lectures at the
University of Minnesota in the
subjects he was to teach and try
to   imitate  them.
In the rest of his talk the Dean
traced the development of the
junior college to the community
education service that it now is.
He mentioned the introduction of
the Medical Secretary course as
an example of the adaptation of
the college to the needs of the
community, and as further examples, mentioned the various
adult evenfng classes, and in particular the current historical geology classes. As the latest development in the integration of
the program of the college with
the needs of the community, Dean
Goddard mentioned the cooperative training program.
He also paralleled the cooperative training program with that
at  Antioch   College,   making   the
