This would seem to indi- trends in higher education of wjsn them to be. we have an possible significance to South ern Oregon college were de veloped at the Pacific North west Conference on Higher Education at Portland State college, recently according to Dr. Richard H. Byrns, profes sor of English, who attended the conference in his capacity as chairman of the SOC hon ors program committee. The first of the two trends." Dr. Byrns pointed out, "as developed by Chan cellor Roy E. Lieuallen of the Oregon! state system of higher education in a memorandum I circulated at the conference, is that the large universities are attempting to regain some of ! the advantages of the small colleges by organizing their institutions into a number of i smaller units. "Most notable of these at tempts to grow big but keep the advantages of smallncss, is the projected University of California branch at Santa Cruz which anticipates the creation of 15 to 20 small lib-1 oral arts colleges - similar to Swarthmore and Amherst in the East and Pomona and Oc cidental in the West." Develop Own Traditions "Each will be encouraged to develop its own traditions and emphasis, and though each college will have its own class rooms and residence quarters, a central library and scientific laboratories common to all are envisioned. Students also will have access to courses offered in colleges other than their own where close student-student and stu dent-teacher relationships will De sought. Colleges will vary in size between 250 and 1.001) students." Dr. Byrns predicted that SOC would have an enroll ment exceeding 2,000 within the near future, adding that if the above-developed trend was accepted, it would be necessary to direct the growth of SOC as soon as possible into the formation of a num ber of fairly small units rath er than into one monolithic structure, thus avoiding the predicament of some West Coast colleges which are tou large to offer students the ad vantages of a small college. ana loo small to offer them the advantages of a large in stitution. That colleges and universi ties seem to have difficulty in keeping up with the changes in standards, changes due In part to the increasing number of accelerated and honors programs in high schools and colleges, was reported as the second trend in higher educa tion. It was suggested that "the student of today is not the student of five years ago, al though some faculty members have not realized it." Judging from his personal experiences and observances, Byrns said this trend was somewhat apparent at SOC. observing, "Although we have a number of students who arc increasing dents who number of stu are very compe- cate that some reactivating and revitalization for in-service program is necessary."
