Central has already receivedi
1202 applications for admission'
next fall, which is a 31 per cent
increase over the number this
time last year.
"Some of these applications
undoubtedly represent an actual increase," said Austin J.
Buchanan, director of admissions. "We are beginning to feel
the effects of the growth in
population and may feel it
more next year than in the
past."
Buchanan said that he could
not predict if this increase will
remain as high when fall arrives because many early applications are due to the increased concern of the high
school students about getting
into college.
When asked how this rise in
demand would effect Central,
Buchanan said, "If we receive
adequate funds to build the
necessary classrooms and housing facilities and properly staff
our institution, we can hope to
continue to grow without setting quotas.
"If we do not, it will be
necessary io set quotas very
soon. This means raising our
admission standards in order
to select the more able students io fill our quotas."
The present admissions policy stales: "A graduate of an
accredited, high school, academy, or equivalent, may be
admitted upon presentation of
an acceptable written official
record."
In the past this meant that a
t-ludcnt who ranked in the upper two-thirds of his graduating class, and whose academic
ted   without   examination,   a
student must bo in the upper
half of his class with a "C"
plus or better average.
However,  Central permits
any high school student to take
an entrance exam if he desires.
"This new requirement means
we are going to test and interview   more   people   before   determining   admittance,"   said
Buchanan.
"We should like to admit
students who have a reasonable chance to succeed at Central. Test scores, principals' recommendations, the student's
vocational plans and objectives,
and most of all, high school
records have helped us determine this,"
In   most    cases    students
from   non-accredited   high
schools   will   be   required   to
take   an   entrance   exam   if
they rank below the top  10
per cent of their class.
Students    transferring    from
other    accredited    universities,
colleges and junior colleges are
expected to have a "C" average
or better.
Students who have below
"C" average will be considered
individually. They may be selected if they have a very good
high School record, if time has
elapsed since their work in the
previous institution, or if there
is some good reason why a "C"
average hasn't been achieved
in that institution.

Dr. Wilbur Moore, vice president in charge of academic affairs, will participate in the
second of the student senate
sponsored talks Tuesday at 7
P.m. in Keeler Ballroom.
The student senate has
started a series of talks between any interested students
and instructors who are willing to answer questions like
'What are your views on...?"
or "Tell us whai your point
of view is about ...," A fire
s>de atmosphere prevails in
ihe room because ii is such
on informal talk.
The first of the series, featuring Miss Frances Martin of
the education department, occurred Tuesday night. The talk
strayed from the planned topic,
wd she gave suggestions as to
[how the educational affairs
j committee could promote the
j scries.
Tpm Fitch, chairman of ihe
educational affairs commii-
j tee, said io Miss Mariin, "We
i (siudenis) don't want a class-
j room presentaiion; that is
i what ihis (series) is.' we want
| to ask instructors "What is
i your own point of view or
j  opinion?"
Miss Martin agreed and said
that this and the Student-Faculty Advisory Council (if it is
; carrying out the original purpose) are a couple of the few
| activities   that   has   been   done
j to make effective people.
t    "What   mistakes   would   you
I want posterity to avoid if you

ideas would you want to convey to the world?" "What responsibilities should society as-
