The Administration of Newtoerry
College under Chris Kaufmann,
.acting president, and H. Odelle
Harman, chairman of the Board
of Trustees, are currently heading
a Pre-Centennial building and en
dowment fund campaign to enable
our college to prepare for its
next century of educational, pro
fessional and Christian leadership.
Newberry College is urgently in
need of a new dormitory and a
larger endowment. If Newberry
College id to plan and prepare for
the future it will need the finan
cial and moral support of every
thinking person in Newberry, as
well as increased financial aid
from the Lutheran churches of
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama
a^td Florida.
It is true that in every walk of
life we are increasingly depend
ent for leadership as well as for
professional and technical skill on
college-educated men and women.
It is important that young men
and young women of high native
talent should have access to col
lege education.
Fifty years ago about 1 in 24
persons of college age went to
college; today 1 in 4; in New York
State, 2 in 5. The upward trend
continues. Nothing visible indi
cates a reversal. By 1960 the
youth of college age in the United
States will be greater than now by
16 per cent; in 1965 by 46 per
cent; and in 1970 by 70 per cent.
By 1960, five of the States will
have a college population greater
by more than 100 per cent. In one
state—fabulous, fascinating, fan
tastic California—the increase will
be 230 per cent; and in only eight
states will the increase be less
than 40 per cent. Authoritative es
timates of the increase in college
and university enrollments within
the next 16 years range from 50 to
100 per cent, depending on the
assumptions. On the basis of popu
lation alone, the national increase
will be 70 per cent; and if the
percentage trends of the last half
century, the national college en
rollments by 1970 will be double
the enrollments of 1954.
This is a plain prospect. It is
based on ordinary arithmetic. The
trends of the past 50 years are of
record; and they are continuing.
These boys and girls have been
born. Higher education in the Un
ited States is now a $2 billion a
year industry. It is headed towards
$5 billion a year within another
short generation.
The future welfare of Newberry
College is of immediate concern
to the citizens of our community.
When the time comes we will want
to do our part. Our city will grow
and prosper as the college grows
and prospers. To share in building
a greater college is a responsibil
ity for our citizens—and a chal
lenge to our vision as we look to
the future.
If snow were some other col
or it would melt sooner in the
spring and the group would
warm up sooner, so scientists
are debating the feasibility of
dyeing the stuff. » ^
