I THIS: uua Urges State Planning State planning for junior and senior colleges was endorsed Monday by a California educa tion specialist. Dr. Leland Medsker, professor and vice chairman of the Uni versity of California’s Center for the Study of Higher Education, spoke to 100 administrators at tending the 22nd Junior College Conference at Texas A&M. He said the new higher education coordinating board should be con cerned with opportunities for jun ior college students who transfer to senior colleges and universi ties. “Articulation will take place by default if it is not planned,” Medsker commented. “But artic ulation by design is more work able.” The speaker predicted “unbe lievable change” in the junior college picture within the next two to five years. “There is already an increase of public awareness of problems of articulation between two and four-year institutions of higher education,” Medsker said. “The crest of 18-year olds came this year. It will be larger again in 1969 and increase 12 per cent ITS TO TALENT ’66 t has leum, nings le Oil nent: Cali- vhicli , see TV AUDniONS TRYOUTS FOR THE ALL NEW TEXAS COLLEGE TALENT SHOW TO BE HELD TUESDAY OCTOBER 19th, 7 P.

Medsker said in 1963 Texas was second only to California in transfer students. Texas had 18,- 000 transfer students, more than half of which transferred from community colleges to senior col leges, he said. “As the cost of education con tinues to climb,” Medsker con tinued, “there will be more stu dents attending college at home.” “Through counseling, we in the junior colleges need to help the student choose the right program and the right institution in which to do his senior college work,” he noted. “And counselors can be helpful at the senior college and high school level. Many students still choose the wrong college for them at the outset.” Medsker pointed to the need for the smooth transfer of junior college students without the loss of credits. He called for the de velopment of grading standards which would aid in the admission and retention of junior college transfers. “There is also a need for ex change of information on instruc tional techniques,” he said.
