Oregon Tech's Enrollment
May Be Near 7,000 Mark
Oregon Tech's 1963 fall term
enrollment will be near the 1.000
mark if advanced registrations
are any indication. More than
639 new students applied (or ad
mission by Aug. 8 as compared
to 394 students on the same date
a year ago. The figures indicate
a 35 per cent Increase in new
students. "Based on the increased
preregistration, it is anticipated
that the fall term enrollment will
approximate 1,000 students,"
Howard Howe, registrar, said.
"Because of the number of stu
dents who have graduated and
tlie smaller freshman enrollment
in 1962, the number of 6econd
year students should remain ap
proximately the same.
Freshman students are sched
uled to arrive on tlie campus on
Sopt. 25 for orientation and reg
istration. Classes will begin on
Sept. 30.
With a fall term registration
of 007 in 1962, 403 single students
were living In residence halls
which have a capacity of 534. "If
we have an exceptionally large
enrollment, we will have to open
building B-18," George Crowe, di
rector of auxiliary activities,
staled. "Applications for married
housing on campus are coming in
rapidly and it appears that those
facilities will be filled by the time
school starts."
