Administration The administration of Kent State University saw a great increase in the student population this year. More than 3,000 freshmen entered the University this fall, while the same number remained on the waiting lists. With the large upperclass and extension enrollments, Kent now claims a total enrollment of nearly 1 1 ,000 students. This tremendous increase in students over the post few years has necessitated expansion of classroom facilities and dormitory areas. The new $3.5 million Music and Speech Center was opened for classes this summer. Con- struction is still underway on the two new men ' s dormi- tories necessary to complete the men ' s quadrangle. Con- siderable redecorotion and renovation was done in the older class buildings this summer. It is expected that plans will soon go into effect for new classroom buildings on the old baseball diamond. Expansion of the physical plant is needed to meet increasing demands.
