35 Countries Represented
By 125 Students In '47-'48
One hundred twenty-five students from 35 countries,
making up the largest contingent of foreign students ever
enrolled, joined the University's citizen students during the
1947-48 semesters. Although foreign students have always
been readily admitted to the University, the numbers seek
ing admission were not large
prior to World war II. Immedi
ately following the end of the
war, however, foreign enrollment
began a steady increase, and is
still on the upgrade. Students
have entered both graduate col
leges and professional schools.
Students Mixed.
Representatives of Norway,
Sweden, Denmark, France, Czech
oslovakia, Netherlands, England,
Turkey, China, Iran, Iraq, Egypt,
India, Cyprus, Palestine, Colom
bia, Ecuador, Venezuela, Peru,
Argentina, British West Indies,
Panama, Honduras, British Gui
ana, Puerto Rico, Alaska, Hawaii,
Canada and Malaya are all study
ing at the University.
Five foreign exchange scholar
ships, authorized last year by the
Board of Regents, were estab
lished. Two University graduates
were chosen to attend schools in
Czechoslovakia and Switzerland,
and one exchange student, Paul
Dzavik, came from Czechoslovakia
to Nebraska.
Ten Scholarships Granted.
Authorization was made recent
ly by the Regents for ten schol
arships of $300, which will be
awarded foreign students regis
tered at the University for next
year and who have been regis
tered for one year or more at Ne
braska. The Lincoln Rotary club
and the Cooper foundation gave
four scholarships of $75.00 each
last year.
Although housing for women
foreign students is available at
the campus International house,
the University hopes to be able in
the near future to establish a
similar house for the benefit of
all foreign students. Cosmopolitan
club on campus sponsors activities
tnr students from other countries.
and is open for membership to all
students, either foreign or u.o.
Enrollment Hits
10,000 Third Time
It's about two weeks to the
opening of classes Sept 15 at the
University of Nebraska and indi
cations are that enrollment for the
third consecutive year will be
about 10,000.
University officials have put
out an urgent plea to freshmen
who expect to enroll at Nebraska
this fall to submit their applica
tions for admission at once if they
have not already done so.
Floyd W. Hoover, assistant di
rector of admissions, said all
freshmen are due on the campus
Sept. 9 for guidance examinations.
Some, however, will be here a
day earlier in response to notices
from the student health center for
physical examination appoint
ments. He stressed that freshmen
students will not be permitted to
pnmnlMp thpir reeistrations until
after they have taken their guid
ance examinations.

Clime Held 'Here
First Experiment to Bring
Americans Close to Idea
A headline reading "University
to be Testing Ground for UN Edu
cational Experiment" in this sum
mer's Nebraskan strikes a new
and pleasant note in the history
of the University.
The summer UN clinic indicates
clearly in which way the sympa
thies of the University lie toward
co-operation and understanding of
world affairs.
Your University was for two
months the testing ground for an
experiment that the UN hopes to
make the basis for an interna
tional program about its aims and
accomplishments. The experiment.
here and in other schools, will
try to correct ' the idea among
Americans that the United Na
tions is far away from them.
The obvious course for an in
stitution where people go to learn,
and to grow with their knowledge,
is that of taking part in not only
the things that appear to affect
them directly now, but in any
thing that may affect the life of
the University in the future.
