HOUSING

Proposed new fact!dies for single undergraduate women

Over 400 single women could not enter the University in the fall of L955 because of the lack of housing, and 125 more are living in temporary barracks. The enrollment incrca en now and the fall of 1962 is predicted to be 1690. The construction program proposed will provide facilities slightly greater than seems to 1 required by th stimated enrollment increase and the removal of temporary barracks. It is felt, how r. that improved housing facilities for women will accelerate urollmcnt iner in this group beyond the estimates based on the pi nt unfavorable conditions. ^ H I ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ I ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ H ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ H ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ I ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ I Stage 1
