               Quarterly Report of the President
                      September 22, 1936


     As has been the custom for a number of years past, I am mak-
ing a statement covering some of the activities of the University
of Kentucky during the last quarter.    Necessarily, this state-
ment is brief in view of the amount of' business before the Board.

     I have to report that the registration of students on Septem-
ber 19 is given by the Registrar's office as 3227, an increase of
252 over last year,   It is expected that the registration will
pass the 3400 mark, which will make it the highest ever attained
in the University in any semester.    In 1931-32 the registration
reached 3232.   Writing this report at a later date than the meet-
ing I am able to say the registration has gone beyond the figure
of 3400.

     The increase in the number of students brings additional
responsibilities upon the University in the way of providing in-
struction, equipment and materials,    Effective teaching necessi-
tates fairly small classes and this increase in the number of
students will require additions to the staff in the near future,
