PRESIDENT SOUNDS
‘COURAGEOUS NOTE’
(Continued from page oncj
This number, however, represents an
increase of 158 over the registration
two years ago. The women’s enroll
ment showed a continued increase and
is now fifteen percent higher than in
1930-31.
Two schools showed gains in enroll
ment over last year, the Education
and the Chemistry and Physics schools
having increased by fourteen and five
percent over two years ago, respec
tively. The Schools of Agriculture,
Engineering, Liberal Arts, and Mir.*
oral Industries, however declined
slightly in registration. This year's
enrollment shows a sixty-five percent
increase in graduate students over two
years ago, the message stated.
Citing the work of the President’s
Survey Committee in studying the en
tire work of the College, President
Hetzel reported numerous changes
made in line with the purposes of
study. Final recommendations of the
committee, he declared, will be sub
mitted to the Trustee committee on
educational matters very shortly.
In conclusion the President said,
“If there ever was a time when dis
criminating thinking must be done by
our public leaders, it is now! If we
are to go forward we must appraise
with fine judgment and support with
high courage those'factors and agen
cies and institutions which have the
capacity to render constructive ser
vice. If democracy fails in this, I
can see no other recourse.”
