Phillips was authorized to make a survey of Juneau to de- termine how hany high school graduates there are in Juneau who would attend a junior college, as- @ month, Grove feels the mOReY cuping gl other obstacles can be understood that as long as there overcome. If college credits earned institutions; if the junior college can be an accredited institution; if finances can be met; if space can be obtained; the question then is to determine the enrollment.
