Enrollment Jump Shown By Survey
JACKSONVILLE, Ill. — (IP) — Trends in expenditures and income of 239 U.S. colleges and universities were analyzed in a survey made by Clarendon Smith, business manager of MacMurray College.
Cornegie Corporation funds financed the survey, providing grants for research scholarships at the University of Omaha 1955 Workshop in College Business Management. For 10 years the Central Association of College and University Business Officers sponsored similar surveys.
"This is quite different from the reported 71 per cent of the total in tax-supported institutions and 29 per cent of the total in private institutions contained in last year's study." Mr. Smith said.
Mr. Smith's survey of college business management was national in scope. It reveals significant changes during the last 8-year period. Enrollment increased 10.4 per cent in the first semester of 1955-56 as compared to the first semester 1954-55. Privately supported institutions showed a combined enrollment of 51.4 per cent of the total of 641,458 as compared to the tax-supported state institutions' enrollment of 48.6 per cent.
Sixty-seven institutions will increase tuition and fees this year, according to the survey. Sixty-eight per cent of the reporting institutions revealed plans for accommodating a combined enrollment 70 per cent higher than last year.
Over 200 institutions are enlarging plant facilities an average of 40 per cent and similarly increasing the size of faculties.
"If the figures contained in this study may be considered reasonable estimations," Mr. Smith said, "then the college population can reach 4,500,000 by 1965."

A Message from
To KU GRADUATING ENGINEERS
"Emerson is a growth company entering a terrific spiral of expansion from a solid base . . just the place for the ambitious graduate."
Harry William's Emerson career is a good example of the diversification of experience Emerson offers its engineering personnel. With his M.S. in Electrical Engineering under his arm, Harry came to Emerson in 1949 as Calibration Engineer in production. Next position—Flight Test Engineer and from there on to Flight Test Project Engineer, to Assistant Development Engineer and now Production Project Engineer. There you have Harry William's current career ladder at Emerson.
"You're in on the ground floor of a fast-growing, established company when you take on a job with Emerson Electric. A vigorous, planned expansion program in our aircraft, electronic, and commercial divisions makes Emerson distinctly a "growth" company with wide-open opportunities for young men. We are at work on a great variety of projects, many of them fascinating jobs including aircraft of the 1960-65 era.
"And believe me, it's to your advantage to get into a medium sized company. For one thing, you're in close touch with top management. They really get to know you as an individual, not as a cog in a giant machine. They give you a chance, too, to put your own theories into practice. If you have a new idea, they'll give it a try. Emerson's future is big. Your future can be big, too, as an Emerson engineer!"
ENGINEERS----A.E., C.E., E.E., M.E.
INTERVIEWS ON CAMPUS
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 10
Sign up for your interview with the Engineering Placement Office. Do it today!
Here, in brief, is a sample of Emerson's diversification of projects: the Commercial Division, established in 1890, ranks among the leaders in fractional horsepower motors, fans, and includes air conditioners, heaters, power saws and arc welders. The Electronics and Avionics Division has been a leader nationally since 1940 in the design, development and manufacture of the very latest fire control systems, missiles and rockets, supersonic air frame sections and mortar locators. Emerson is one of only five companies in the U.S. in production on missiles of any kind.
Find out how you can get in on the ground floor of this fast growing, medium sized company. Meet Emerson's engineering representatives and talk it over with them. If it's impossible to make a date, be sure to write A. L. Depke for full details.
