New Dorms
To Revise
3 to 1 Ratio
The new women's dormi
tory construction which will
enable the University to ad
mit 600 additional coeds is
going to wreak havoc on the
3 to 1 ratio currently existing
between men and women stu-'
dents. j
The 600 additional coeds who;
will be admitted this fall will:
raise the coed population to a new
high of 3700. Men’s enrollment
will remain at approximately
10,000.
C. O. Williams, dean of admis
sions, said pressure to equalize
men and women’s enrollment on
campus has been growing steadily
stronger in recent years. The long
time campus ratio has been three
men to one coed.
5300 Apply
Applications for admission had
reached 5300 by May 1, according
to Dean Williams. 'Of this total,
2800 have already paid their en
rollment deposits.
Dean Williams said the Uni
versity will admit about 4600
Ireshmen in 1957, 1600 of them
women.
However, because of limited
housing on campus, 1300 of the’
new freshmen will be assigned
to off-campus centers. Two-year
undergraduate centers, are now
maintained at Altoona, Erie,
Hazleton, Ogontz, Pottsville andj
the State Forestry School at Montj
Alto. • I
Enrollment Exceeds 16,000
Total enrollment in 1956-57,
both on and off campus, topped
16,000, of which 3500 were coeds.
These figures include graduate,
special and part-time students.
Dean Williams reported fresh
man campus quotas are already
filled in engineering and archi
tecture, business administration
and the elementary education area
of education.
He said openings still exist on,
campus in other areas of educa-j
tion, agriculture, the liberal arts,j
mineral industries, home eco-j
nomics, chemistry and physics.!
physical education, and in all
curricula at off-campus centers.:

27Recommendations
Tabled by Cabinet
All-University Cabinet has voted to refer all 27 recom
mendations made by the Spring Week committee to next
year’s committee.
Robert Krakoff, commitl
recommendations to Cabinet ;
Thursday night.
The main recommendations
were:
• That the carnival closing time
be extended from 11 p.m. to 12:30
a.m.
• That the Mad-Hatters Parade
be replaced by a float parade.
• That the coronation of Miss
Penn State be moved from the
beginning to the end of the week
and combined with an event simi
lar to this year’s All-Star Service
Revue.
• That the He-Man contest be
held on a separate night, with the
events arranged so that there is
no competition between runners
and weight men.
• That a limit be placed on the
amount to be spent by organiza
tions advertising their carnival
shows.
• That the faculty be given
notice of Spring Week at the be
ginning of the semester so they
can avoid giving examinations
during the week.
Krakoff proposed the follow
ing calendar of events for next
year’s Spring Week:
cups
for a penny
That’s iall it costs in electricity. And for
just pennies’a day, electricity washes the dishes,
•does the laundry, cleans the rugs.
lour electric company constantly works to
make sure there is always plenty of low-price
electricity to do more and more jobs to make
your life easier to keep electricity the biggest
bargain in your family budget.
