ed as a factor In American college
life is yet in its infancy.
The time is approaching. the
bureau Of education believes, when
there win be as many women as
men enrolled in universities and
other higher institutions Of learn
ing.
Not only is this prediction sup
ported by the fact that more girls
than boys graduate annually from
high schools. but figures compiled
by the bureau during the past 26
years show that the number of col
lege women have increased 156
percent in that period, while the
number of men have advanced on
ly 143 percent.
In the year 1890 of all the col
lese students In the United States
6S.s percent we're men and only
31.7 percent women. but in 1915
only 63.2 percent were men and
S6.S percent were women. Abrupt
increases in the number of women
were also reported in 1918, but
this was due, it was stated, to wal
conditions.
These figures are contained II
