Enrollment Hits 33,000 'Groesbeck Reports Figures Lower than Last Semester' s What's New At 764-1817 Hershey, Hart Disagree on Reclassification Statement Total enrollment at the Univer- sity and its branches for the win- ter term has been estimated at more than 33,000, according to Registrar Edward G. Groesbeck. This compares with last semester's record enrollment of 34,453. Students at the main campus number 22,740, along with 1,455 law and medical students who were registered separately. Last semester, 27,856 were enrolled at the Ann Arbor campus. A breakdown of figures on school, class and in-state, out- of-state lines for the present se- mester's enrollment was unavail- able yesterday. Out-State Students Last semester, after six years of decline, the ratio of out-state stu- dents rose to 27.2 per cent on the Ann Arbor'campus. In the fall of 1951, University enrollment was 17,266. In the past five years, enrollment has in- creased by 6,270. Enrollment has increased about 1000 per year through the early sixties, with an increase of 1700 last year.- Projections released in Decem- ber, 1964 by the Office of Aca- demic Affairs predicted an in- crease in enrollment to 41,797 by 1970 and 50,186 by 1975. These figures anticipated a proportion- ally much higher enrollment in- crease at non-Ann Arbor centers.: An increase of 63 per cent was expected by 1975 for the Ann Ar- bor campus, one of 153 per cent for the Dearborn, Flint and Graduate Study Centers, and more than a 500 per cent rise in enrollment at Flint College. Growth predictions released in the fall of 1963 anticipated an in- crease to only 36,000 by 1968 and 47,500 by 1975. These were revised after the unprecedented flood of students in the fall of last year: caused severe dormitory over- crowding. Groesbeck said that he hopes to extend advance classification pro- cedures to graduate students next year. The system was used to pre- register 14,793 undergraduates forl the winter semester. Groesbeck predicted that event- ually all student records will be maintained on computer tape to simplify registration and that student fees will be assessed by mail. ACTIVITY MERGE Offiea Hotline The Student Legal Defense Committee has collected about $1200 from faculty members for funds to appeal the cases of the students who draft status was changed because of last October's draft board sit-in. Jim McEvoy, Grad, chairman of the com- mittee, said he expects the majority of the faculty will contribute by the end of the week. The goal of the committee is to raise $5,000-$10,0000 for the court appeals. They will expand their campaign to students next week, probably in the form of letter soliciting or a bucket drive. McEvoy stressed that the committee, an ad hoc one composed of four students and four faculty members, is not taking a stand on the war or the draft. "We are only concerned with the viola- tions of the civil liberties of students," he said. Approximately 500 men attended the fraternity mass rush meeting last night. Attendance was below last semester's, but Richard House, '67, Interfraternity Council rush chairman, attri- buted the decrease to the large number of men who are rushing for the second time and are thus already familiar with fraternities. At the end of the second day of rush registration, 725 men had signed up for this semester's rush. The number of registered rushees may drop somewhat this semester, IFC Executive Vice- President Kelly Rea, '66, predicted, "but the number pledging should be about the same or greater." Last semester, 1425 men I registered for rush and 625 pledged in the largest rush in IFC history. At the end of the first set of Panhellenic rush parties, 750 of the 1127 who registered are still participating, according to! Linda Koehler, '66, chairman of rush counselors. Miss Koehler said that about 100 girls dropped because they did not have 2.0 or better grade point averages last semester, and she attributed the other drop-outs to "disinterest, finances and other reasons." * * * In response to a "strong surge of audience interest" in the American Conservatory Theatre product'ion of Edward Albee's "Tiny Alice," three non-subscription performances have been NATIONAL MOVEMENT: Protest Planned on: Reclassifications By DAVE KNOKE campus would be along lines sim- ilar to what the American Federa- VOICE political party last night tion of College Teachers is doing announced its intentions to sup- at other universities, according to port and participate in nation- Locker.
