page 2 daily nebraskan nrollmenf. Continued from p. 1 The College of Pharmacy was, the only professional school with an enrollment decrease. This semester 139 students are enrolled compared to 207 last spring. Kirk Benedict, Pharmacy College, associate dean explained the decrease. He said the pharmacy program has changed from one year of pre-pharmacy study and four years in the College of Pharmacy to two years of pre pharmacy and three years in the College of Pharmacy. Instead of counting four classes in the col'ege this year, he said, three classes are counted as part of the college. But only two classes were included in the UNL count because pharmacy seniors now are in Omaha, Benedict said. He said the pharmacy college joined the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha in 1972 so students could be nearer the center's medical operations. The other two classes will move to Omaha after this semester, he said. $H? - c 3,624 College Agriculture?

Extension Division enrollment figures of 992 for the current semester are preliminary figures for evening class students who are not enrolled in any daytime clashes. He said he is not sure when complete figures will be available. The most popular night classes are business, English, journalism and philosophy, Allen said. McMahon said business classes are the most popular correspondence courses. "The working adult wants to improve on-a-job skill.

Allen said he thinks most of those taking extension division English and philosophy courses are working toward a degree, while those taking journalism are taking classes of special interest like photography. Part of the increase in night class enrollment is caused by the overflow in day classes where enrollment also has jumped, Allen said. A trend toward furthering one's education is adding to enrollment, he said. Allen said people, especially those working, are turning toward continuing education to learn about special interests or as refresher courses to brush up on skills, pick up new ideas or fill some leisure time. McMahon said some fields are requiring the employes to take refresher courses to apply for a new license. He said correspondence course enrollment has re mained stable because "the traditional college educators are slower to accept" the idea that a classroom situation is not the only way to learn. For this reason, he said, many are not advised to take correspondence courses. The actual number of night classes offered has re mained in the 360 to 370 range for several years, Allen said. The correspondence courses and night classes are paid for almost totally from tuition, McMahon said. ,Allen explained they used instructors from the day classes who do not have to prepare further for night classes. "If had to hire a whole different .teaching staff I dont think we could survive," Allen said. ' BIVOUAC 1235 Q Gunny's ' i ' !X m 7 7 f . : 1 - Jr . ' ' ' " ' - . . ; . r . , ' .-'! - -.. .
