Exporlonco 5622 49th 6t. by John Russnogle Enrollment in the College of Agriculture has been increasing faster than the total University population, according to Roy Arnold, assistant director of resident instruction. In 1960, 606 students were enrolled in Ag College, compared with 1,393 for first semester 1972. Although this represents a drop of 39 students from last semester, Arnold doesn't envision this as a trend. Arnold said the long-range enrollment increase can be attributed to several factors. 'There are more job opportunities for students in agriculture when they graduate." Arnold said all students who used the University placement service found employment. He added that currently there is a list of job openings on file for those interested in an agriculture-related occupation. He said the Ag College has been unable to fill the demand for agriculture education majors. Each year teachers from other states have to be imported to fill openings, he added. The Ag College continually has expanded the number of programs offered, Arnold said. Both the food sciences department and the natural resources department have been added since 1960. These have helped increase enrollment, he said. Other departments have increased the number of options open to students, and this also attracts students to the college, Arnold said. The number of women enrolled in the agriculture curriculum also has increased. Arnold said 79 women are enrolled this semester. A few years ago "women were an exception," he said. Arnold said women's liberation has broken down women's mental barriers toward enrolling in Ag College. He said there always have been some women interested in the Ag College curriculum, but previously it was considered a man's field. There also has been an increase in the number of transfer students to the campus, Arnold said. It has been a national trend for students to attend small schools for a year or two and then transfer to a larger school, he said. The Ag College is beginning to feel the effects of this trend, iraj C " 73V 434-7421 '54th & 0 Street X STARTS TODAY 1 WINNER OF 2 ACADEMY AWARDS!

Enrollment in the College of Home Economics has shown a similar increase, according to Gwendolyn Sailor, assistant dean. The enrollment for first semester in 1962 was 390, compared with 1,048 for this fall's session. The largest increase is in the freshmen and junior classes, according to Sailor. The increase in the junior class is due largely to transfer students and students changing majors, she said. Other factors which have increased student interest in the home economics college include its "social relevancy and job opportunities," according to Sailor. She said the college offers students majors that allow them to work in the community. Job opportunities are available to graduates, she said. Few jobs exist in Lincoln, but students willing to travel can find jobs, and students enrolled in the college "know jobs exist," Sailor said.
