I. U. Fees Fourth Highest In U. S. Required fees for in-state students on the Bloomington campus of Indiana University are* the fourth highest in the nation’s state colleges and universities for the 1969-70 academic year. Purdue University has the even more dubious distinction of ranking second in the United States. These rankings were revealed in surveys made by the National Association of States Universities and Land-Grant Colleges, and the American Association of State Colleges and Universitites. Rankings are made annually, and I. U. figures to drop down in the next listing when some state institutions which avoided fee increases this year face up to the inevitable. Highest tuition and-or required fees for in-state students at a state university is SBB4 a* year at the University of New Hampshire, followed by Purdue, $700; University of Vermont, $678, and I. U., $650. In charges to out-of-state students, Purdue ranks fifth nationally at $1,600 and I. U. 15th at $1,490. The leader in this category is the University of Vermont, where the tuition of $2,078 a year approaches that of the prestigious Ivy League institutions (Harvard’s annual tuition is $2,400.) When the I. U. fees were increased by the Board of Trustees in their March 28 meeting, President Joseph L. Sutton said, “There is no recourse.” President Sutton said, “Certainly, I would rather lower the University’s fees than raise them, but we are caught in the bind of increased costs and squeezed by a less-than-adequate budget given to the University by the State Legislature.” Joseph R. Hartley, Vice President and Dean of Faculties, headed the study committee which recommended the new fees. He pointed out that the legislative appropriation for Bloomington in the 1969-70 fiscal year is $1.4 million less than the previous year, and said, “With the drastic reduction in Legislative support, we have absolutely no recourse but a major fee increase.” The survey by the National Association of State Universities and Land-Grant Colleges showed that nationwide, tuition and-or required fees at its 113 member

institutions increased by 16 per cent for in-state students and 14 per cent for out-of-state students. By comparison, the nine public universities in the Big Ten averaged increases of 33 and 26 per cent. Purdue’s increases were 75 and 33 per cent, Indiana University’s 67 and 42 per cent. (Although the percentage figure is always lower for out-of-state students, the dollar figures are considerably higher.) The accompanying chart shows how tuition and-or required fees have increased at the nine state universitites in the Big Ten, at Ball State and Indiana State Universities, and at state universities in four neighboring states. HONORED AT RETIREMENT PARTY Mr. and Mrs. Harry Gingerich of 801 South Front street, Syracuse, formerly of Gary, along with agents and staff managers of the Gary District of Commonwealth Life Insurance, were guests of the home office at Louisville, Ky., over the week end. Mr. Gingerich, former district manager for the company at Gary, was honored at a retirement party at the Brown hotel Friday noon. Friday afternoon and Saturday morning, the Gingerichs were guests at the French Lick Sheraton hotel for the “President Dinner” which was in recognition of the largest month’s production of business ever experienced by the Commonwealth. ENTERTAIN WEEK END GUESTS Week aid visitors in the Carl Baldwin home at Fascination Place, Syracqse, were Mr. and Mrs. Robert L. Smith of Elkhart and Mr. and Mrs. Max Chiss of Goshen, parents of Mrs. Smith. The Smiths recently returned from Weisbaden, Germany, where he was stationed with the military service, has completed his tour of duty, and are living in Elkhart.

Greer have moved from Midland City, Okla., to Lake Papakeechie to make their home.
