TROY. N. Y.-e (I'D —An all-
time high in college enroll-
ments -particularly in engineer-
ing and science courses—is pre-
dicted for the postwar period.
.„ Livingston W. Houston, execu-
tive vice president of Renseelaer
Polytechnic Institute, says: “Be-
cause this is a mechanized war,
with amazing scientific devices
and engineering feats, thousands
of servicemen have become at-
tracted to engineering and— sei-'
ence and many will return as en*
gireering students.
“Before the war," he added,
"not more than 5 per cent of the
public had any college connec-
tions. Through tuition-free war -
ti aining courses-conducted by col-
leges for the Untied Office
of Education, many thousands of
men and women had their first
taste of the college classroom and
many of them will be more ambi-
tious for their sons and daughters
to have college training."
Houston also predicts that pre-
ceding the postwar rush even en-
gineering colleges, wltlt large stu-
dent bodies, will experience a pe-
riod of lower enrollment. How-
ever, he adds, ”^his period will
have its advantages, if it will give
our faculties and administrators a
breathing spell in whjch to' ap-
praise wartime educational ex-
perience and develop the best pat-
tern for postwar engineering and
science education."
