the loss may properly be attributed to an advancement of the standards required for admission and for graduation,14 It should be noted that the enrolment for the summer session is not classified in the table according to the divisions of the University. The total figure for the enrolment in various divisions would, of course, be considerably larger if such classification were made. Thus, while the table shows an enrolment of 380 for the Graduate School for 1919-20 for the regular school year, there were 170 graduate students enrolled in the summer session, or a gross total of 550 for the year of 12 months, and a net total of 466, excluding duplicates. In the following table a summary is presented of the various degrees granted by the University from 1905 to 1919.
