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-

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.
