Enrollment Increases Plague

World Universities

By DAVID DUBOFF
One of the most significant de-
velopments in the field of educa-
tion, both on the national and
international scenes, has been the
unprecedented increases in college
and university enrollments.
Figures released by the UN Ed-
ucational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization (UNESCO) show a
worldwide increase of students in
degree-granting institutions since
'1950.
For the world as a whole, the
UNESCO figures showed, there
were almost 15 million students
enrolled in higher education in-
stitutions in 1963, as compared to
'6.5 million in 1950.
This is more than twice the
rate of increase in enrollment in
elementary schools and is far
greater than the rate of increase
in adult literacy, which has also
Nasser

been moving upward at a rapid
rate.
A substantial amount of the rise
in higher education enrollment is
due to the entry of the newly-
independent countries of Asia and'
Africa for the first time to any
notable extent.
In Africa, for example, the en-
rollment on the third level (every-"
thing above high school) rose from
71,000 in 1950 to 245,000 in 1963,
an increase of nearly 250 per cent.
In Asia the enrollment in high-
er educational institutions increas-
ed during the same period from
one million to three million. This
figure does not even include Com-
munist China.
There have also been substantial
rises in other areas of the world,.
including North America and the
Soviet Union. In North America
the figure nearly doubled in the
13-year period, and in the Soviet
arns

Union it slightly more than dou-
bled.
The 10 countries granting the
largest number of college and
technical diplomas in 1963 were as
follows: United States, 614.000;
Soviet Union, 354,000; Communist
China, 220,000; Japan, 185,700; In-
dia, 179,000; United Kingdom, 74,-
000;' France, 71,000; West Ger-
many, 58,000; Philippines, 53,000,
and Canada, 29,000.
Fields of study with the great-
est number of students varied
widely with the different countries.
In many countries, for example,
the largest number majored in the
humanities or liberal arts, while in,
others the emphasis was on teach-
ers' courses, social sciences or
medicine.
In the United States, 155,000,
or about one-fourth of all college
degrees granted, were in the field
of education, with social sciences
Israel

second and humanities third. In
the Soviet Union, degrees in edu-
cation were also first with indus-
try and construction second and
agriculture third.
The results of a recent investi-
gation conducted by the Interna-
tional Association of University
Information also reveals that the'
United States has the highest per-
centage of students in higher ed-
ucation in proportion to popula-
tion, or 2.5 per cent, representing
about 5 million students.
Next in line comes the Soviet
Union with 1. 2per cent or 2.5
million students, followed by Aus-
tralia and France. Great Britain
has fallen to 0.5 per cent and
Spain is at the bottom of the list
with 0.3 per cent.
Figures released by the U.S. Of-
fice of Education earlier this year
indicated that the U.S. college

population will increase four times
as fast as the national population
during the coming decade. In its
annual projection of school data,
the office forsees a 12 per cent
rise in the nation's population by
1975, while college enrollment is
expected to jump 49 per cent.
The gain in college enrollment
was attributed to the higher birth{
rates in the late 1940's and 1950's
as well as to the increasing pro-
portion of high school graduates
who go on to college.
This increase in U.S. college en-
rollment has caused a correspond-
ing increase in the growth of new
institutions of higher education.
A study released last month by
the U.S. Office of Education re-

colleges, and 114 junior colleges
and technical institutes *were
created.
"The continuing thrust to ex-
tend educational opportunity, es-
pecially through the junior college
level, lends support to the prob-
ability that the creation of new
institutions is likely to continuea
at a brisk pace." the report states.
The study also points to the
need for more faculty and staff
as a result of the greater enroll-
ment. Its study of 1,809 colleges
and universities shows that they
will need 199,138 full-time profes-
sional staff from November 1963
through October 1969. This in-
cludes 51,438 professional staff for
replacements, and 147,700 for
additions.

By The Associated Press
President Gaml Abdel Nasser of
Egypt declared yesterday if war
comes, his country is poised for
"total war" to destroy Israel.
Israel was reported last night
to have ordered its ships not to
challenge the Egyptian blockade
forbidding entry of Israeli ships
and cargo through the Strait of
Tiran into the Gulf of Aqaba.
The Soviet Union meanwhile
called on the United States and
other Western powers to restrain
Israel from a thrust against the
Arabs.
U.S., Israel Meeting
President Johnson and Israeli
Prime Minister Abba Eban con-
ferred last night about the explo-
sive state of the Middle East, but
there was no immediate indication
whether they had reached any
decisions on policies or possible
courses of action to head off an
Israeli-Arab war.
While President Johnson and

Eban were conferring in Washing-
ton, diplomatic sources at the
United Nations said the Israeli
government had told Israeli ships'
they must not, for the present, try
to run the blockade declared by
Cairo. This closes Israel's normal
line of oil supply from the Persian
Gulf. Israeli ships are forbidden
passages through Egypt's Suez
Canal to Israeli Mediterranean
ports.
As for Nasser's announced
blockade of the Tiran Strait, a
West German freighter captain
said he had sailed through the
strait into the Gulf of Aqaba Fri-
day and saw no, sign of any
Egyptian blockade.
Israel Blockade
No Israeli ships have tried but
other ships including this German
ship have passed through en
route to the Jordanian port of
Aqaba, near Israel's port of Elath
at the top of the gulf.
Nasser said that "we knew that

by closing the Gulf of Aqaba it
might mean war with Israel." But
he added: "We will not back down
on our rights in the gulf."
Three Arab nations -Egypt,
Jordan and Saudi Arabia - and
Israel have outlets on that en-
closed waterway.
Nasser said that if war br oke
out, "it will be total war and the { .
objective will be to destroy Israel."

offered support to Egypt, again

The Student Housing Association
(SHA) is working this summer on
several projects designed to in-
crease the supply of housing in
Ann Arbor and instill competition
into what has been to date a sell-
er's market, according to its chair-
man, Tom Van Lente, '68.
Van Lente said that SHA, a
subcommittee of the SGC, was
primarily involved in four proj-
ects over the summer.
Perhaps the largest project is
the creation of a rating list for
Ann Arbor landlords. This list
would have comparisons in a va-
riety of areas such as rent, apart-
nent maintenance and damage de-
posits. These ratings would be de-
termined by analyzing three sourc-
3s of information; complaints re-
ceived by the SHA, surveys of stu-
dent opinion and objective facts
such as the amount of the rent.
Good Publicity
Such a listing, Van Lente ex-
plained, would provide good pub-
licity from those at, the top of the
list and blacklist those deemed
unacceptable. He said that it would
be likely that the Student Rental
Union would organize boycotts of
landlords called unacceptable.
Such a boycott would be design-
ed primarily to induce apartment
owners, who rarely manage their
own buildings, to change from un-
acceptable to approved rental
agents.
The SHA is also concerned with

A.t Stanford
Protest War
STANFORD, Calif. (1P) - Forty-
six Stanford University faculty
and staff members announced yes-
terday they're out to stop the
Vietnam War "through mass civil
disobedience."
The 46 signed a statement say-
ing "We do not want to protest
the war any longer; we want to
stop it."
"The form of actions will be
non-violent civil disobedience in
the spirit of Martin Luther King,"
Jay Neugeboren of the English
department told a news confer-
ence.
He spoke of such things as try-
ing to stop the Pentagon for a
day, or disrupting military induc-
tions or production at napalm
plants,
"More traditional forms of pro-
test have failed," Barton J. Bern-
stein of the history department
told the news conference.
"There is no other alternative
than this civil disobedience open
to us now," he said.
Hadley Kirman of anatomy said
he favors civil disobedience be-
cause he feels the government is
following a policy that will lead to
World War III, "a nuclear war. It
will change this planet from a liv-
ing one to a dead one."
The protesters said they hoped
to spark a national disobedience
movement against the Vietnam
war.
Their statement said the war
"with deadly speed" is "out-es-
escalating the protests" against it.
They said they aren't certain that
their civil disobedience will stop
the war but "nothing less has any
chance of stopping it."
In response to questions of
whether they are willing to go to
jail for their actions, Bernstein
said, "I'm afraid so," but "not
with glee or joy or enthusiasm."

Prakken claimed at the meeting
that Godfrey had brought in the
legislators "to discredit the board

on his ticket. "You align with the
three candidates who are saying
the board is doing a poor job,"
Prakken told Godfrey.
As the meeting began, Godfrey
repeated complaints he has often
made about the school system's re-

the HRC for using what he has
termed "entrapment tactics" in in-
vestigating Ann Arbor High

Recently it was made public
that staff members of the HRC
