UNIVERSITY REGISTRATION STATISTICS 
THE registration returns for November 1, 
1911, of twenty-seven of the leading univer- 
sities of the country will be found tabulated 
below. Seven institutions exhibit a decrease 
in the total enrollment (including the 
summer session) this year, Chicago, 
Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Northwestern, 
Texas and Yale, although in the case of 
Minnesota and Nebraska the apparent loss 
is due to a change of classification. The 
largest gains in terms of student units 
were registered by California (966), where 
the summer session showed an increase of 913 
students, Columbia (527), Cornell (440) and

2 These figures do not include the registration in 
the two branch schools of agriculture, nor in any 
of the short courses, some of which were included 
in the previous years. 
The actual attendance this 
fall is practically identical with that of 1910. 
3 Certain classes of students counted in previous 
years must have been omitted in the total for 1911, 
since the institution reports a gain over last year.
