University is Cosmopolitan By JACQUELYN COOKE and JACQUELINE DIAMOND FROM the land of the midnight sun to the jungles of darkest Africa come students to the University of Arizona. From Vienna, from Peoria, from Singapore, from Kalamazoo they come by hordes in planes, in trains, in limousines and jalopies. Some come to further their educotional pursuits, some to further their social activities, some just come to sit in the sun and treat their sinus. Nine foreign countries, three U. S. possessions, and 45 states ore represented in the university ' s registration of 2,680 students this year. Students are enrolled from Hawaii, Philippines, Canada, France, Mexico, Denmark, Austria, Germany, China, Alaska, South Africa, and South America. Only three states not represented are Maryland, Mississippi, and South Carolina. The greatest number of out of states students come from California with 135 students, Illinois follows with 88 and New York with 62. Between 10 and 30 students hail from the states of Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, New Mexico, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Wisconsin, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, and Missouri. From the state of Arizona 2000 students alone ore enrolled. t ALL THETAS. Doty Easton, 1 ' 3. IIL.

Students come from far and wide to enroll in the engineering and aggie colleges. Outstanding are the opportunities offered in the fields of archaeology and as- tronomy. EV ' 5 GO WESTERN.

Kan., Lynn Morris, la., and I ■ ■■ 411 UNIVERSITY IS COSMOPOLITAN (Continued) Nearly one-third of the students enrolled ore out of state stu- dents. Their reasons for coming here to school are many. Besides the outstanding reason of an excellent place to go for sinus and asthma, reasons vary from wanting to marry a cowboy to tossing a coin to moke the big decision. Some come because the reputa- tion of the college has been carried home to them by brother, sisters, or friends. There are a few who come because it was p°P ' 5 Alma Mater and they ore going to follow in his footsteps. Curt Goldstaub from Frankfurt, Germany and Hienrick Kouffler from Vienna, Austria, received scholarships from an international com- mittee in New York which awards scholarships to European refugees. They are members of Zeto Beta Tau. tHinky Chow, from China, and enrolled in the engineering college, come here because of the excellence of the school of engineermg. Her other reason was that she liked the informality of dress and social life. Jean Erhort, from Manilla, heard of the university through an alumnus of Gamma Phi Beta who attended school here. Some come because of the movies they are making here, hoping that they could put their feet on the first rung of the ladder of fame through acting OS extras in horse operas. A few girls frankly confessed that they came here to get married. A great many of the colleges in the east are not co-educational, putting matrimonial minded at a con- siderable disadvantage. One of the big attractions of the school is the informality of dress and social activity. The easiest way to be marked as on EV , eastern visitor, is to wear o bright shirt, new hat, clean gabardine pants, silver buckle, and shiny, stiff boots. Levi ' s are the rule, the older, dirtier, and more thread-bore they ore the more socially accepted as one of the gang you ' ll be. This of course goes for both fellows and girls. A favorite recreation is desert picnics, a favorite picnic-spot being at Sobino canyon. Moon-light horseback rides and steak frys too, are a never ending source of real en- joyment And of course, dancing. Some out of state guests complete their education in other universities, but those who finish the four year course usually claim Arizona as their state and continue to moke their home here.
