MSU leads the nation in enrollnlent of women The State University of New York was listed as the largest multi-campus institution with 358,242 students. Second was CUNY with 226,871, followed by the University of Wisconsin the University of with 133,303, the California with 114,945, and University of North Carolina with 90,49l. There are more women enrolled at MSU than on any other single campus in the country, according to a survey by the National Association of State Universities and Land-Grant Colleges. The survey also showed that MSU enrolled more fIrst-term freshmen than any other campus in the nation and ranked second to Ohio State University in total enrollment. MSU's enrollII).ent of 19,745 women led all of the 103 NASULGC institutions surveyed, followed by Ohio State with 17,365. Others in descending order were City University of New York (Brooklyn), University of Puerto Rico (Rio Piedras), CUNY (Hunter), and CUNY (Queens.) First time freshman enrollment was put at 6,894 for MSU, with Ohio State again second with 6,463. Others in lllinois order were University of (Urbana-Champaign), Purdue, and Minnesota (Twin Cities). Among universities with the largest campuses, MSU with 43,418 students was topped only by Ohio State with 45,963. Following MSU were Minnesota (Twin Cities), Texas (Austin), and Michigan (Ann Arbor). A handy semantic strategem for MSU's institutional chauvinists when the cocktail hour conversation turns to size might be to overlook total enrollment (that distinction goes to the State University of New York system) and single-campus enrollment (Ohio State), and point out that MSU is the largest university in the country that maint~ins only one campus.

A motion for one dean and two chairmen or directors selected by their groups for inclusion on the committee was approved. Herbert Rudman, professor of administration and higher education, endorsed the ad hoc committee's efforts to present the Council with a "balanced report."

" BY SANDRA - DALKA term are assigned Holloway, coordinator of the program, said that approximately 60 students per to community health and welfare agencies to work with and assist personnel. "The first term serves as an orientation period during which time the students become acquainted with the functions and responsibilities of the agencies." He explained that it is duri1)g the second term that the students serve the functions of regular staff members of the agencies. According to Holloway, more than 50 agencies in the greater Lansing area participate field placement the program. in "Each agency assigns a supervisor, a regular professional member of its staff, to direct the student's efforts," he said. "This is a valuable 'learning while doing' experience, and not only provides many agencies with much needed assistance, but also allows students an opportunity to investigate the different areas of social work and see if they like the field." He added that an attempt is made to their interests with match student assignments. Through the program, students are .working'in the :various areas of social work including drug programs, family planning, public schools, juvenile courts ,n ... d in programs for the elderly. "The students work at the agencies approximately two days a week," he said. "But their efforts usually go beyond the assigned time and they volunteer many more hours a week to the agencies. "These students are highly motivated and bring a considerable amount of energy to their assignments." In addition the asliignments, to students meet for weekly seminars to discuss their areas. "This is beneficial for the students because they can share their experiences with other students. This makes them more aware of the whole field of social work." Another advantage to the program is the excellent reputation MSU has made in the community, he said, "Mimy of our graduates are placed these agencies because of the contact made through the program." in Holloway explained that the program is also designed to place students in field assignments during the summer months, their own home times many communities. in Three faculty members and a former faculty member have contributed a chapter to the "Second Handbook of Research on Teaching" t:Q.at criticizes urban schools for not eliminating strong, white middle class bias in their curricula.

He was joined by Mrs. Coretta King, widow of the slain civil rights leader, and Rep. Andrew J. Young, D-Ga.

"We must first recognize and understand the forms of violence in our society," she said. "Violence can be psychological, spiritual as well as institutionalized. So much of the violence we experience is institutionalized violence. "Starving a child is violence, depriving a welfare mother of her welfare payments is violence, discriminating against a working man is violence, inadequate housing is violence, "lack of quality education fo~.al.hmil.dren;;is vi0Jence, the Nixon ·admi.rifSfiation~OHgclitb'acks are violence." . . . ·She called boycotts a very powerful weapon that is needed to continue the social change process which the King center in Atlanta supports. .

Young said. "We have to find a way to continue to mobilize for social change that doesn't destroy, but builds up." told Rep.

At the same time , however, Young warned, "Politics doesn't give you anything. It just gives you the right to fight for something, and unless you fight you won't get it." President Clifton R. Wharton; Jr., described King as a man of "transcendent stature." He said, "If we are to build a world resembling the dream of Dr. lJ(ing, education must be a cornerstone. "Martin Luther King showed that one man, living one beautiful life can make a difference in this world through God's gift of an inward and spiritual grace," Wharton said.

Purely fiction, you say? Right! It's highly unlikely in this day of power excavation shovels, soft hands and lack of a motivating cause. But something similar did take place on the campus 50 years ago. Students and faculty, with the help of alumni and governing body members, devoted a week to hand - digging the basement for the Union Building. Sore muscles, aching backs and blistered hands were the aftermath. The misery seemed worthwhile, however, since this seemed to be the only way to build t':le much - era of wanted Union during an unavailable dollars. BY YV.WWELL TREASTER this The building stands today as a monument to wl:at can be described as perhaps institution's greatest faculty, student and alunmi cooperative effort. Furthermore, it marked the beginning of organized alumni fund raising which has grown into a yearly multimillion dollar effort. It had its genesis as far bac)c as 1905 when the need for a Union Building was recognized on the campus of the then Michigan Agricultural College. It was a part of the "Union movement" that swept university communities with its in ongm at Cambridge University England in 1815. All universities and colleges were recognizing the need for a central gathering point for students and faculty. Nothing really came of the desire for such a building at MAC until about 1915 when the graduating class pledged a sum of money for a Union Building fund. The next step was the formation of the first Union Board in 1916 and arrangements to use Old College Hall, the college's first building, as a Union headquarters. Plans were made to revamp the interior for Union purposes, but these came to naught when the building partially collapsed in August, 1917. eventually made Although the activity rested on dead center for several years, two important co.operative efforts slo wly developed thh the Union a reality. First came the launching in 1919 of an alumni subscription drive to raise $500,000 for a Union Building fund as a memorial to MAC soldiers killed in conflict. Four years elapsed before the second cooperative effort materialized, the physical labor project in November, 1923, involving hundreds of faculty, students and alumni in "excavation week" that prepared the basement for the superstructure. Festive Occasion a Wha t festive occasion this basement digging enterprise must have been, Madison Kuhn's history, "The First Hundred Years," offers this description: "Men worked half - days in highly competitive teams while coeds served doughnuts with coffee and the military and Swartz Creek bands furnished music. Professors took their turns; the main footing b~neath the team tower was excavated by a coinposed of doctors of philosophy. Even the State Board of AgricultUre, including Mrs. Dora Stockman, loaded one wagon. Gifts and pledges came in from alumni and friends who were pleased to discover that the current 'flaming youth' ""'" college generation - 'Men worked half-days in highly competitive teams , while coeds served doughnuts with coffee anq the military and Swartz Creek bands furnished music.' 5 per cent first mortgage bonds. These were sold to the State of Michigan for sinking fund purposes. The Alumni Association was never able to pay more than $25,000 in interest. Later the bond issue was defaulted and absorbed by the state. as Hard pressed the Alumni Association was for funds to continue the building construction, it soon became obvious that the building should be taken over by the college. This transfer caine about in October, 1935, with both ownership and operation responsibilities ' removed from alumni hands. This action made it possible to secure $150,000 funds through the state legislature to finish the part of the building now used by the cafeteria, and to build the east wing. in P.W.A. The Union really became what it is today when a new south wing was designed and built · and extensive remodeling of the rest of the building took place in 1947. At $3,000,000 from borrowed funds, the cost was several ' times that of the original structure. With the opening of the new wing in November of 1948, the MSU Union became one of the outstanding facilities found on major university then campuses. a Its kitchen national award and visitors oft"'" ""me to admire the fine decor,.,' · . ,.: " received Housed were a Wide variety of services crucial to students, faculty and the general public. From a revenue standpoint, the most profitable was the student bookstore, later moved to the International Center. Its cafeteria and meeting room food services became noted for their efficiency and high quality. For the first time, outstanding facilities were available recreation including bowling alleys and billiard tables. It housed classrooms for the Art Department, Alumni Association offices, 1 2 guest rooms for campus travel bureau, visitors, browsing room, ballroom, dining and meeting rooms, grill, town girls' lounge (for commuters), men's and women's faculty association rooms, art and music rooms, student publications offices, student organization offices, and barber shop. Some of these activities have since been moved to. other campus locations. ticket office, was capable of both vigorous labor and firm devotion to alma mater." Although the half - million dollar alumni campaign wasn't entirely successful, it provided the nest egg that was essential. The total pledged by alumni, friends was slightly less than $400,000 - four-fifths of the original goal. Unfortunately, more than $100,000 in pledges was never collected. students, and The cornerstone, laid June 14, 1924, is filled with a variety of memorabilia. It encases among other articles lists of servicemen who died, pictures of Union lists of alumni association activities, committ ees engaged, in building activities, and newspapers of current date. Michael Dmochowski, Union manager since 1950, enjoys rereading the printed address of the Honorable Joseph B. Cotton; '86, a state legislator, who spoke at the cornerstone laying ceremonies. to live "Cotton expressed so many of the same anxieties that are so often of in our society today," he concern typical examples noted.

Liberty incredible it seems the Alumni Association The building, although only partially finished, was opened officially June 12, 1925, under Alumni Association ownership. By that time the cost had been rev:ised to ' $600,000, and more money was needed. It was then that the Alumni Association under the direction J. McCarthy of .

The General left the reception early for another appointment.' For security purposes he and his entourage, security officers, took the service elevator from the second floor to the basement. Somewhere in between including Socia1Hub The Student Union for years was the hub of s()cial and ,extracurricular activities on the MSU campus. It was the informal meeting place for all students and faculty, many times the locale for p,olitical activity and sometimes demonstrations that were les,s than palatable' from an administration viewpoint. The activities program was organized, and still is, by the Union Board of 14 student members, and the Union Council of 70. But Unions as campus c.enters are undergoing c~nges. ~o lc;>nger are they the chief assembly points at most of the larger universities. At MSU this situation has evolved over the past two decades as student living styles and facilities have taken on a new look. The first major break was in 1952 when, with the opening of Kellogg Center, the Union ceased to become the main conference and public meal serving center. Then came the vast dormitory construction program with living writ, meeting and the new feeding accommodations, Student Services that provided more adequate quarters for many student activities, competitive the off-campus eating places, and general southward movement of the center of the campus. . Building A simfur evolution has occurred dn many other campuses. It has brought hard times to most Union operations. The University of Michigan Union now has only limited food service except in its Faculty Club which is a part of that building. Its hotel rooms are antiquated compared to the many modern motels in the Ann Arbor area. Self liquidation or even a profit has always been the name of the game for the MSU Union until the last few years. Manager Dmochowski admits that it is a struggle now to make ends meet. 'Nevertheless, he and his staff are managing to keep the finances near the break - even point, and at the same time maintain a variety of services and facilities for students, faculty and the public. The cafeteria is still considered one of East Lansing's outstanding eating places and group meals are deserving of praise. Leslie W. Scott, Union manager from 1946 to .1950, now vice president for development, is concerned about the future of the Union both here and elsewhere. He sees changing roles f9r these buildings and their student board operations. "They can still be highly valuable ,structures on any campus, but some innovative planning will be called for," he commented. "One of the biggest pro blems will be sources of funds for operation and maintenance." leaving e 1 e c (r i cal c i r c u it s the malfunctioned the dignitaries unceremoniously cooped shoulder to shoulder in a lift designed more to carry food carts than people. fmally emerged The general's total anger w hen he is recalled with some humor both by Vice President Leslie Scott, former Union manager, and Mike Dmochowski, present manager. They witnessed the event with great trepidation. Alfred JOMson, Union Building supervisor, also remembers the incident all too vividly. He was the man in charge of rescue operations. But General MacArthur did return to Michigan State University. He was the speaker at the 1961 spring commencement in Spartan Stadium where he also received an honorary degree. Scott also noted that unions may not always have kept pace with the changing lifestyles of the students, and that they have faced the competition of large dormitory complexes that often contain recreation facilities rivaling their own. In his opinion, the greatest future lies in the strong development of faculty student contact pre>grams to supplement formal classroom sessions.
