The Oregon State Board of Higher Education presents facts on a proposed initiative to unite the University of Oregon and Oregon State Agricultural College at Corvallis into a single Oregon State University, create a state teachers college at Eugene, close Monmouth Normal, and replace La Grande and Ashland with junior colleges. It warns of building needs, bond retirements, and loss of gifts, arguing the plan would waste assets and disrupt enrollments and finances.
