NIPPONESE LEAD IN FOREIGN ENROLLMENT

Statistics compiled by Recorder E.N. Stone show that out of the two thousand students now enrolled in the university, only forty-eight are citizens of foreign countries. Of these forty-eight students, Japan leads numerically with twenty-three campus attendants. With one exception, all of the Japanese students are enrolled in the liberal arts college. Canada comes next with sixteen students, India claims three, Norway two, and Russia, Germany, Finland, China and Sweden each one student apiece.

Last year Japan also led in the foreign enrollment but the other countries, notably Germany, India and Sweden, had a much larger number attending the university than in the present year Canada also dropped this year from twenty-one students last year to the present enrollment of sixteen.
