Record OTJ Enrollment Seen; Policy Change Made
HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON
THURSDAY. AUGUST 13. 1953
OTI bas adopted a new policy
for the coming term In regard to
enrollment applications, accord
ing to Winston D, Purvlne, direc
tor. Recent high scbool graduates
will be asked to produce trans
cripts of credits.
Also, It appears that about sev
en of the regular courses will be
placed on a waiting list basis be-
Auk. SI. nine more were received,
making a total of 24. This year, by
Aug. 11, una, ine scnooi nas re
celved 214 application from new
students. On Tuesday, 10 applied
for admission.
The figure for old students ex
pected to return to scbool baa not
changed appreciably. In August,
1952, 30$ were expected to return.

"We have maintained the same
number of Instructor positions that
we had last year, but we have
our finger out and placed on sev
eral possible new instructors and
are looking for more. We may have
to hire IS new people within a
week. It Is just crazy."
BIG CLASS
The electronics technology
course, which is radio and TV to
gether, has 23 new enrollments this
year, Purvine said. There are 34
carry-abead students. The greatest
number of students that course
has ever bad In the past was 42.
The entire building will be taken
over for the course which previous
ly had Just the one floor. This dis
lodges all the business courses
which were upstairs.
"We are putting in a complete
TV shop," stated Purvine. "The
enrollment right now will fill four
of the seven classrooms in that
building, and that Is without any
walk - in enrollment. Last year
bv the time school started, an ad
ditional 50 students had enrolled in
addition to the 24 counted by Aug.
31. Then we had .more than 2W
"walk-ins." If that happens In the
same proportion this year, we can
expect 1000. -
"Diesel . mechanics technology
course had an enrollment of about
80 students at the previous high
point. We now have a registration
of new students of 42 and a carry-
ahead of more than 60. So we nave
moved the cabinet making classes
from the Marshall Cornett Bail to
the laundry building and nave
given that space over to a heavy
equipment snop lor aiesei.
"The auto body and fender re
pair class has 17 new students and
a carry-attend enrollment of 10,
making a total of 30 already. It
has had the most pronounced up
swing oi. any class, so we moved
carpentry from the separate build
ing it was in to the laundry build
ing, to make Its old shop available
either for body and fender or die-
sel, t
"Surveying technology and en
gineering design technology are
being moved to a newly remod
eled building to meet accredita
tion requirements and increased
enrollment. The space they vacate,
which la two large classrooms in
Nlckerson Hall will beajised, after
being remodeled; for business
courses."- ;
The summer patching up of the.
streets and general repair work
has been done, the director indi
cated. Fourteen more classrooms
have been prepared in existing
buildings to take care of the tech
nical related classes ajsd allied
subjects. Work on the, campus Is
50 per cent technical and 50 per
cent practical.
The technical institute, estab
lished in 1947, had more thai i
per cent veteran enrollment that
year. Last year the number of vet
erans of World Wr n and Korea
had dropped to under 20 per cent.
This year It appears that the figure
will be less than 10 per cent. There
are only II veterans among, the
new students wbo bare applied lor
admission. - - .
So, for the first time in its his
tory, OTI will have a student body
of the type that was normal prior
to' 1041. - , )

"This new student figure 1s very
