A fall enrollment at the Univer

an increase of 535 students over
ine same period last year, was
reported today by Chancellor Clif
ford Hardin.
This is the fourth successive year
that the University has shown a
substantial gain, in regular stu
dents, he said.
The enrollment record of 10,133
was set immediately after Work!
War n.
The increase, comparable to add
ing a small college to the Uni
versity, does not indade l.0o& stu
dents who are enrolled in the Uni
versity's evening and off-campus
courses.
Dr. Hardin explained that the
final enrollment probably will pass
the 8,490 mark as additional Grad
uate College registrations are ex
pected in the next few weeks.

Of the total enrollment, 6.235 are
male students and 2,101 are wom
en. Dr. Hardin said the increase
was remarkable because the num
ber of high school graduates in
the state has remained appxoi
mately at the same level during
the past four years.
The increase in the University's
enrollment has been the result of
youth in furthering their education
and not by increased birth rates.
