STUDENT BODY CUT BY 6000 SINCE WAR

Putting in sharp focus the great changes that war has wrought on Harvard, the newly released figures on the civilian enrolment for the University's 308th year reveal a drop to less than 25 per cent of the usual north. On the other hand, however, there has been the development of the huge trained-manpower factory of over a dozen Army and Navy schools with 6000 men, bringing the number of students back to almost the 8000 of peacetime years.

The College civilian enrolment is only 1082 while the Army Specialized Training and Navy V-12, also assigned to the undergraduate part of Harvard includes 1180 students, 930 in V-12 and 250 in the Army.

Other Navy units, totalling 4250, include the Navy Supply Corps School, the Naval Training School (Indoctrination and Communication), and the Medical School. The Army has 1700 men here, including Supply Officers, Chaplains, Overseas Administrators, and Air Force Statistic ans. Both have men in the Electronics School studying Radar.

Perhaps the most striking figures are those for the Graduate Schools. In the Medical School there are only 68 civilians with 453 Army and Navy students. Only 12 men are left in the once huge law school, seven in Public Administration and six in the civilian group of the Dental School. In all about 700 civilians as compared to the peacetime 4500 are left in the graduate schools here.

Radcliffe, following Harvard onto the three term basis has a large summer term enrollment, but the 500 here this summer will increase to about a thousand, it is expected, next term. Radcliffe has its own service school, too, with a hundred WAVE ensigns quartered at Briggs Hall
