Enrollment boom eyed at Teachers College Des Moines
State Board of Regents heard that Des Moines college may see up to a 95 percent rise in fall enrollments, based on application totals vs last year. President Maucker warned the figure could require tuition and program revisions, as the college plans a two month study to refine 1950 enrollment estimates. Last fall the college enrolled 3,026, a 1% increase from 1949. The board also approved fee changes tied to the shift from quarters to semesters, effective summer 1957, including $80 per semester for undergraduates and various rates for graduate and festival courses, plus the drop of the agriculture minor for 1958.
