The higher education study report, with one exception. and the executive committee recommendation on higher education were accepted Thursday by the legislative committee of the Oregon State division, American Asso ciation of University Women. Medford was among the AAUW branches that partici pated in the study. Chairman of the local higher education committee is Mrs. Frank Van Dyke. She is on the faculty of McLoughlin Junior High school. The executive committee recommended that the Ore gon State division express to the legislature its interest In maintaining high standards for higher education in Ore gon, including community, colleges, by (1) careful scru tiny for greatest efficiency in use of state funds; (2) ade quate taxation, not increas ing taxes, for quality educa tion; (3) if there is not ade quate financing for high standard education, that tui tion be increased rather than quality decreased. Copy to Legislators Mrs. John R. Shepherd, Eu gene, co-chairman of the state higher education com mittee, conducted the study through 27 of the 31 AAUW branches. A copy of the study report will be mailed to each legislator. Ten legislators at tended the meeting. Mrs. E. C. Kienle, McMinn- ville, state legislative chair man, reported that the legis lative committee will follow the legislation related to the educational measures and will support those measures meet ing the recommendations of the branches. The study also showed that community colleges should be financed by a combination of state and local funds, with the state providing the great- UN Pilgrimage tHEC Chairman inbiaueu, Name Committees Central Point - Mrs. Morris er amount. An overwhelming majority felt that superior students should not be dis couraged from enrolling in community colleges. Television Mentioned A large majority indicated a preference for supervision of community colleges by the state board of higher educa tion, although half the re plies indicated local lay boards should administer them. Television was felt to be most effective in only certain few classes, but was consid ered to be an effective sup plement to university teach ers by increasing the number of students reached. An obvious majority felt that description "over-crowding" on existing campuses were probably accurate and that new building should be sought to relieve the crowd ing. The survey showed such building should not be post poned, even though the ma jority of respondents felt there was not enough money in sight at this time to sup port the budget requests of all educational levels. The ma jority of those making the last statement denied that com. munity colleges should be favored over other institu. tions in budget allowances. More than half indicated that good community col leges should offer vocational training and liberal arts train' ing in combination. Most answers supported the view that quality college teaching is related to the numbers of students in class.
