From Preface: Symbolizing these words "Education for Victory", the Long Beach Junior College Evening Classes surpass most similar educational institutions in the vast number of courses offered, combined with varied social privileges. More students than ever are attending these classes for the express purpose of learning what they can best do to serve their country during war time. .... The main purpose of Cereus is to give to those who have never attended Evening Classes and to the community as a whole, a synopsis of the many opportunities presented by this institution's curriculum to all people who are working but wish to continue their education and therefore find it necessary and practical to attend school at night.] Black and white photos and illustrations.
