vassar which graduated its first class in
1866, has 5,377 living graduates, of whom
2,702 are married, or were in March, 1921,
when the figures were compiled. Question
naires were sent out at this time to all grad
yates and the responses amounted to 81 per
cent. According to these responses there
are 3,779 children to the 2702 married grad
yates, approximately IA children to mar
rage-about the same as the Smith figures.
During it's first decade Vassar graduated
324 women, of whom 179 married and had
365 children. In the second decade 37S were
graduated. 20S married and there were 1855
children. For the decade ending in 1897
there were 312 married graduates out OF a
total Of 604. and 54S children. For the
decade ending in 1907 there were 1,427 grad
yates. s19 of whom married and had 1.416
children. OF the 1920 graduates in the dec
ade ending in 1917 1.10S married and had
1,071 children. 1t will be seen from these
figures that there is one child and fraction
to each marriage.
SO much for figures 1t is quite apparent
that the birth rate among the graduates of
our colleges Is not increasing alarmingly.
Neither does the race of the educated seem
to be dying out. They are holding their

increase and multiply: he must continually
evolve toward higher order of develop
ment. And it is in this higher development
that the college graduates and their children
apparently have most OF the odds in their
favor.
Take the matter of health, for example.
The Statistical Bulletin of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company quotes a recently
completed study mortality rates among
college women. Death rates among grad
uates of women's colleges in the United
States are exceedingly low. Among 1851
women cited the death rate between the ages
of 20 and 81 is only 3.24 per 1000. Nearly
oAe-h half of the total observations were cen

Columbia's statistical records are not pre-

1910. The main reason for this is found in

graduates of the same schools, in spite of
the fact that in many cases the marriages in
the college group were made much later.
Barnard among the youngest of the wom-
ems colleges, has records going back only
twenty five years. These records show an
average OF one child per marriage among
the graduates. Here again, however 1t is
hardly fair to draw hasty conclusions, since
tables on families of the more recent gradu-
ates cannot be quoted. The Barnard Alum
nT Register shows that of total of 2,095
graduates from 1893 to 1919 inclusive. 756
have married, or 36.1 per cent. These mar
ried graduates have s71 children, or IL child

S and Births Increase
Among WeIIes1eys AIunnae

"Some twenty or more years ago. said
Miss Pendleton "the Association of Collegiate
Alumna gathered quite elaborate statistics
comparing the health the number of mar
riages and number OF children per marriage
OF college women, with similar statistics OF
their sisters who did not go to college or
their cousins nearest their ages These sta
tistics showed that there was very slight
difference between the two classes, but such
difference as there was was In favor OF
the college bred woman, and, as have said,
while we have no recent figures, my impress
sion is that there are more marriages and
more children per marriage in the latter
years.
"No one denies that college women marry
later in life than non-college women, and
consequently any statistics that are made
up on the basis of women not more than five
years out Of college would give an entirely
wrong impression. I suspect that the same
thing would be true of college men,"
A graduate of the Engineering School of
Columbia University who married a little
over year ago told the story of his life in
business since schooldays that may be con-
sidered typical of many Of his fellows. Said
he:

and college was distinctly a preparation for
the latter.
These informal but fairly accurate Smith
figures would seem to bear out this con-
clusion The class of 1901, with approx
mately 236 living graduates, has 1914 hus-
bands and 33S children. This means that
about SO per cent. of the class is married
and that there is an average of about 1.07
child per marriage. 1t may be assumed that
this class, twenty years out of college. has
a marriage and birth record which is fairly
complete and Will not change to any great
extent.
Compare with these 1901 figures those for
the class of 1911 ten years out of college.
This class has approximately 345 living
graduates, of whom 299 are married about
Sc per cent of the class. These 299 married
graduates have 431 children. an average of
about Ia per marriage. In other words, ten
years after graduation this class has
higher percentage of marriages than the
class of 1901 twenty years after graduation.
and If its birth rate continues during the
next ten years in the same proportions as
during the last ten it will have about twice
as many children per marriage as the class
of 1901.
The class of 1916, five years out of college.
has 11s married graduates from total Of
324 a little over third of the class. and
these married graduates, with their eighty
three children, have approximately OF OF
child each. The class of 1915. figures for
which happen to be available has six years
after graduation about 495 of it's members
married who boast 8 of child apiece.
Although these class figures do not pre-
tend to be official statistics, they are suf-
fciently accurate to show tendencies, and
1t will be observed that there is a certain
law of averages at work. Taken at their
face value they would seem to indicate that
more college women of the younger genera
tions are marrying than did their elders and
that they are not failing seriously in doing
their duty by the race. Indeed, some figures
taken at random from the alumne publica-
ton of one of the large women's colleges
may well indicate that the birth rate among
college women is on the increase.
For the period covering approximately the
year ending with June. 1921, there have
been about twenty-five births recorded for
q class twelve years out of college. Three of
these twenty-five babies were the fifth In
their families two of them the fourth and
seven of them the third, the others being
second and first children. In this same
record two cases OF twins were cited. but
not among the fourth and fifth children.
wellesley College has no official figures
available but President Ellen Pendleton says
that II is her impression that among Welles-
lev graduates the number of marriages and
the number of children per marriage Is In
creasing. rather than decreasing, as time
goes on.
