Enrollment
Continued from p. 1
The enrollment growth was expected, Meyden said, but was forcing larger classes and making it difficult to find student-teaching positions.
But Meyen said he was pleased with the increase, especially because stricter admissions requirements meant the school was not only admitting more students but also was admitting better-quality students.
The school of architecture and urban design experienced its largest undergraduate growth in the past five years. It recorded 682 students this year, up from 646 last year, a growth of 5.6 percent.
"I'm surprised at those figures," said Max Lucas, dean of architecture and urban design. "We control our enrollment very carefully."
Lucas said that he was pleased with the increase but that he would need time to study the figures to
determine their full effect.
"Our problems are with faculty overloading, and yes, they are hard to find," said he assumed that the increase would attract more state financing.
The School of Journalism recorded only a slight drop, from 732 to 727, but an increase in the number of students.
Tougher entrance requirements caused the drop, which was expected and hoped for, for Mike Kautsch, dean of journalism, said.
Kautsch said the school had been hoping to decrease enrollment because it already was more crowded than desired. Since 1963, the school's enrollment has gone up 18 percent.
"We'd possibly be in good shape if it dropped some more," he said.
The School of Fine Arts' enrollment remained steady, dropping only six students to 1,100. Peter
Thompson, dean of fine arts, said he was relieved enrollment was not up because the school still is coping with a large increase from last year.
Thompson said the school actually had admitted more students than it intended but was helped out by the fact that many of them did not show
"We could have been in desperate shape," he said.
The School of Pharmacy experienced growth, with 252 students this year, up from 244 from last year and 240 in 1985.
The law school, which has its enrollment dictated by the Kansas Legislature, admitted 506 students this year, compared with 508 last year, said Lillian Six, director of admissions.
The Legislature gradually has been reducing the number of students admitted to the school, Six said.
ASK hears teacher loan report
By a Kansan reporter Staff writes

TOPEKA — Members of the Associated Students of Kansas heard an updated report yesterday on a proposed piece of legislation that would provide forgivable loans for education majors in Kansas.
The bill would cover those students who would teach in Kansas in areas having shortages, said Chris Graves, ASK executive director.
ASK, which has members from each state university, lobbies the Kansas Legislature for student concerns.
The loans would cover all or part of tuition costs for the students during their junior and senior years. Students would not have to repay the loans if they taught in the areas with shortages for seven years after gra
duation. The loan would be reduced by one-seventh each year.
Students who graduated and

decided not to teach or decided to teach elsewhere would have to repay the loans.
The ASK legislative assembly has been supportive of the proposal in the past and will continue its support, Graves said.
The bill was introduced to the House of Representatives during the last session by State Reps. Vernon Williams, R-Wichita; Jo Ann Pottert, R-Wichita; and Elizabeth Baker, R-Derby.
ASK members testified in front of the House Education Committee in support of the bill in March.
The education committee referred it to the interim Legislative Educational Planning Committee for further study. The committee took no action but appointed two of its memb- eries, Jim Allen, R.Ottawa, and State Rep. Anthony Hiley, D Topeka, to study the proposed bill more closely.
The two should report to the interim committee no later than November, Graves said.
