Ranks High
In an extensive survey to find
how students’ schooling at PJC
has affected their lives, ques¬
tionnaires have been sent to all
upper division terminal grad¬
uates of 1939. 150 of the grad¬
uates who could be contacted,
were interviewed on the value
of their courses and extra-cur¬
ricular activities at PJC.
Results of the tabulation of
over 200 questionnaires show
that studies in the social sci¬
ences have been those of most
value to the greatest number
of students in all phases of
their lives.
