By ROGER RAPOPORT
Jennifer Cochran, '67, applied
for a single room this year. She
was assigned to one with 50 oth-
er girls.
She is one of 460 students cur-f
rently making the best of tempor-
ary housing that can be found in
almost every residence hall onj
campus.
Never before has the University
placed such a large number of,
freshmen and transfer studentsj
into temporary facilities.
They are crammed into recrea-
tion rooms, sun rooms, study halls,
and even a library.
In West Quadrangle, about 25
men are packed so tightly into a
recreation room that there is les,
than two 'feet between beds. All
are living out of their suitcases;
no closet space is provided.
Just in Case
At Stockwell, small groups are
placed into sun rooms and iron-
ing rooms stand ready in case of
additional overflow.
A library is the temporary home
for one group of Couzens girls.
Ironically, one tenporary tenant,
Susan Kasakoff, '66, reports that
all the book shelves are locked.
Late Sumer Admissions
Create Crowded Conditions
(Continued from Page 1)
Spurr explained that "the Univer-
sity's admissions policy of accept-
ing all qualified in-state appli-
cants forced the school to take
several hundred qualified students
this summer. Many had been re-
jected at other schools, mostly
those in the Ivy League."
The hordes of freshmen result
from World War II babies coming
of college age. Tentative enroll-
ment -projections have forecast a
1975 student body of 47,000, near-
ly double the 29,000 who will en-
roll this fall.
As early as last 'spring, the
dormitory crowding 'problem was
envisioned by Haun, the housing
director. "Every potential dormi-
tory student was notified that his"
room might be subject to the
addition of another person. We
let the student know this before,
he signed his housing contract,"
Haun said.
But despite the planning and
expectations, the University has
found itself unprepared for the
freshman onslaught this week.
Some administrators disagreed asl
to whether the confusion was
borne of the 500 person freshman
increase in general or just the'
unexpected extra summer appli-
cants.
Many saw potential danger sig-
nals for education at the Univer-
sity if growth cannot be con-
trolled. Dean Anderson of fresh-
man-sophomore counselling found
it "extremely serious" that courses
are closing a day ahead of last
year's t i m e t a b 1 e, particularly
courses in humanities.
Haun bemoaned the position of
the housing office whereby "we
have to either house these stu-
dents or tell them they can't come
here. And we 'certainly can't do
that." He noted that in some peak
periods during tbe early libs
students remained in temporary
quarters for an entire semester.
"We hope to start moving these
students out this week," he said.
And one unidentified official
worried about the subtle erosion
in education caused by over-ex-
panding sections and forcing in-
structors to carry more students.
"These are subtle processes which
undermine education," he explain-
ed. "But they will not show up
in the counselling officef or the
records since the classes aren't
officially closed. These problems
only come out in the classrOom."

Dean Robertson also pointed
to the size of the incoming class.
It will be the largest class in the
literary college to date, number-
ing approximately 2800.
