U. W. Enrolment

That it is not alone the rich
mans son and daughter who go
to college is proved by certain
statistics released recently at the
University of Washington. While
it is true that of the total en-
rollment of 1858 for the school
year 1929, 5,204 students list
ed their parents occupations as
business or professional and 240
recorded that their parents had
retired from active business lives
yet 466 were children of unskill-
ed laborers, and 294 children of
skilled laborers. The occupation of
housewife was given in $50 cases,
and of government employees in
229 cases. Farmers sent 443 sons
and PA daughters to the Univers-
ity last year. A total of 953 stu
dents did not indicate their par
ents' occupation.
