422 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [ J u l y 17, relatively unimportant summer work than on that of the winter session, which holds a definite place in the life-plans of its constituency. (3) Upper-Class Women) , , T h e onIy figures w e have beann (4) Graduate Students j ^ on the probabilities in the case of upper-class women and graduate students are those of the current Summer Session compared with the corresponding figures for the Summer Session of 1916: 1916 1917 Women from the winter session 215 205 Women who have attended only in the summer (chiefly teachers) ...... 230 196 Total women , 445 401 Graduate students, men Graduate students, women ..... Total graduate students .... 131 27 158 118 23 141 , It will be noted that both these groups show a falling off of about 10 percent as compared with last summer; but the unsettled effect thus evidenced is relatively so small that one is inclined to expect at least as large an enrollment of upper-class women and of graduate students in the fall as in 1916. The figures for November 1, 1916, w e r e : Upper-class women 686 Graduate students 418 T h e total estimated registration at Urbana, then, for the fall semester of 1917 would be 4840 as compared with 5319 for November 1, 1916: Nov. 1, 1916 Est., 1917 Freshmen 2079 1836 Upper-class men 2136 1900 Upper-class women 686 686 Graduate students 418 418 5319 4840 You will note that according to this figuring our enrollment for next fall will show a decrease of only about ten percent below that of 1916. Sincerely yours, C. M. MCCONN, Registrar
