By MERLE JACOB
Overcrowded dormitories here
are but one manifestation of a
crowding problem that is facing
all universities across the country.
The housing situation, while
immediately felt, is only one as-
pect of the general trend of over-
crowding that has plagued all
educational levels since the war
a n d post-war babies entered
school.
Universities have felt the im-
pact of overcrowding in the last
10 years. With more students
feeling they must go on to college
and a birth rate which has re-
mained at a fairly high level
since the war, educators see no
numerical relief for the univer-
sities.
Become Acute
The problem of providing resi-
dential facilities for the burgeon-
ing student population has be-
come acute since 1957. At that
time according to figures from the
Office of Health, Education and
Welfare, both public and private
universities were accommodating
660,000 students in dorms.
By 1961 there were 750,000 stu-
dents being accommodated. How-
ever university administrators in
1961 were planning on housing

were housed in dorms last term,
the newspaper reported.
The University of Texas in
Austin is discussing plans for a
new dormitory for men. At pres-
ent, the Daily Texan reported,
only 11 percent of the men en-
rolled in the university live in
university-owned housing.
The last dorm built was in
1955 and since that time the en- -
rollment has increased by 10,000.
Most men are forced to live in
off-campus apartments or pri-
vate dorms which may be very
expensive or sub-standard. If built}
the new dorm would not bex
ready for at least three years so
momentarily conditions are not
being helped.
High-rise
The University of Colorado is
planning two high-rise housing
structures which will be ready in
1966. Presently the residence
halls are filled over capacity, the
Colorado Daily explained. The
dorms hold 4,415 students and are
overcrowded.
Stanford University in Stan-
ford, Calif., has the long range
goal of becoming a residential
college.
One-third
Of the 10,000 students enrolled
at the university only 4,570 live
in university housing. Enough
dorms would have to be built to
house all the people off-campus
besides rehabilitating the dorms
presently on campus. With the
high cost of building new dorms,
the university has little choice but
to let students live off campus.
Across the country the hous-
ing condition is generally the
same-overcrowded dorms and
not enough money or land to
build new ones. Private dorms,
off-campus apartments and new
university dorms which are mas-
sive in size are some of the new
developments which are being
used to meet the situation.

However, according to figures
from the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare, public
and private universities will have
to start on long-range building
programs now if the schools are
to relieve the overcrowded condi-
tions which now exist and which
will definitely get worse in the
coming years.
