QUESTION FOR The
PEOPLE TO DECIDE
DIR. ROBERTS TALKS ABOUT CON-
soLlDATIoN OF STATE IN
sTITuTloNS

in an account of meeting of the
Albuquerque Commercial club Tues
day evening an Albuquerque paper
quotes A. B. Stroup as saying that DR..
Frank H. H. Roberts, president of the
New Mexico Normal University, is
working to have all the state institu-
tions of learning consolidated at three
points, Las Vegas, Mesilla Park and
Roswell. The underlying meaning of
Mr.. Stroup's assertion would seem to
have been that President Roberts was
either jealous of the state university,
which is located in Albuquerque, or
fearful of its growth.
When the matter was called to the
attention of DR.. Roberts by a repre-
sentative of The Optic, although he
refused to be interviewed at length
he went so far as to say that the ques-
tion of state school consolidation
which he understood, is being widely
agitated throughout New Mexico, was
one that should be decided by the peo-
plae and not by college presidents. DR.
Roberts did not propose any plan fol
consolidation of any of the state
schools, but he said he had discussed
the matter with other educators when
it was agitated during the session oi
the last legislature. He is reported
however. to favor some form of con
solidation.
