Dr. Canuteson
nine months in Europe, said such services as health, advising, vocational guidance, housing and scholarships have been of little importance in the Scandinavian universities, but are now being expanded.
Dr. Canuteson had a study grant to the University
of Oslo, Norway, where he found few university-organized student activities.
"The activities of the students are centered outside of the university," he said. "Until recently the universities have taken little interest in the individual students."
"An organization of the students has taken it upon itself to finance housing, employment bureaus, cafeterias, recreation clubs and scholarships in previous years, but now
such sponsoring is done more and more by the universities," Dr. Cauteson continued.
Dr. Canuteson said the health centers which are now in existence in the universities he visited are actually only examination and advisory centers.
"Students can go to the student health center to get medical advice, but they must go to a public clinic or private doctor for treatment," he explained.
Medical insurance is compulsory in Norway, he said. He thought it worked very well in that country, but was not suited for the United States. ___
