U. of ALASKA TO BE FILLED
TO CAPACITY THIS YEAR ]
The outlook for the coming
school year at the University of
Alaska at College, Alaska, shows |
prospects for as many students ;
as last year, according to a state
ment by Helen M. Jorgensen,
Regis* rar. Many of last year’s
students are planning on another
year at the University and have
reserved their dormitory rooms
for the fall semester.
The procesing of applications
from new students is being com
pleted and already there is a wait
ing list for men students who want
rooms in the dormitories, Miss
Jorgensen said. Rooms are still
available for women students. ‘It
appears that there will be many
who will be unable to attend
the University next fall, if all
rooms on the campus are filled
and housing in Fairbanks is un
obtainable.
As in years past new applica
tions are being received from pro
spective students from the United
States as well as from the Terri
tory. Many prospective students
are G.I.s who saw service in some
part of Alaska and wish to re
! turn to the Territory to study and
make their homes. Married coup
les are planning to bring their
own trailer accommodations so
that they will be assured of hous
ing.
The Department of Mining and
I Civil Engineering prove to be the
most popular fields of study for
men, whereas general courses in
Arts and Letters are the choice
of women students.
