More Sons for Eli

Yale last week opened its ivy-covered doors wider to accommodate some of the thousands who knocked there. The University announced that it would increase its fall enrollment a whopping 54% over its prewar average (to 8,000). More than half will be veterans.

Yale had already taken on 60 new faculty members, plans to hire several hundred more, to give itself a record faculty of 1,200. More important, it had done some thinking about housing. How Yale hopes to work the September miracle:

P:Double up students in campus dorms, and cut their rent in half.

P: Farm out undergraduates to live with faculty families and New Haven alumni. 1$ Convert 19 private houses, a clubhouse and boathouse into dormitories.

P: Use 100 Quonset huts already bought, snare more Army barracks.
