m
sion.
The crowding brought on
many problems.
Fast Texas State faced the
problem of (biding 50 new In-
structors—and still more were
being sought.
But the East Texas State Prob-
lent which may arouse the most
emotion: ‘
Where can it park the 3,809
automobiles registered by stu-
dents and faculty.
Midwestern University saw
"tile human Wave te
up In advance a graduate as-
sistant program lor teaching
which Vice President N, W.
Quick said cares for 80 per cent
of the enrollment bulge.
The University of Tcxns Is
forced to keep laboratories op-
erating until 11 p.m.. an old sto-
ry at Arlington State.
A -quote that expresses a lot
of the problem came from Dr.
Ralph W. Steen, president of
Stephen F. Austin College:
"An burease of this magni-
tude involves some serious prob-
l«m« lit tratlr— -* h-*****-, but
we are going to make it ”
Following are best estimates
of enrollments in other schools
this year, with last fall’s figures
given last. Not all t{ie figures
are fully comparable, fe-cause
of special courses, late registra-
tions and tiie like:
Texas Western 7,233 and 6,877.
Texas Ail 4,550 and 4,231.
Texas Southern 4,385-and
1,220
Del Mnr 3,500 nnd 3,010.
Pan American 2,668 and 2,360.
Rice 2,500 (fixed enrollment).
Angelo State 2,314 and 1,845.
Incarnate Word 1,324 and
1,147.
Our I-ady of the Lake 1,288
and 1,200.
South Plains 1,108 and 803.
Austin College 1,079 and 1,122.
Howard County 1,026 (unavail-
able). »
Cooke County 1,005 and 800.
Weatherford 943 and 655,
Texas Southern 931 and 698.
St. Thomas, Houston, 855 and
The reports to an Associated
Press survey came from border
to border and In between ,
Enrollments are very high,
higher than some educators es-
timated, as much as 35 per cent
higher than last fall for state
institutions, up to 500 pep cent
higher than guessed lor one new
school.
•Frank Phillips' President J.
W. Dillard said the increase to
"junior colleges is due to the
high quality of education now
available through them atid be-
cause senior colleges can't grow
fast enough to handle those who
want college degrees ”

President J D. M<
of Vic-
toria Junior College said the
boom is due to n greater num-
ber of high scliooi graduates, a
larger percentage moving on to
college, growing acceptance of
junior colleges and a stepped up
military draft call. No other
school named the draft as a fac-
tor. Enrollment was 1,534 com-

Miller doesn't consider his

ganization of nonconformists."
