iese two tables compare the appropriations for maintaining the State University 
¢ University’s enrollment. The heavy black bars graphically show the changes 
1ave taken place. While the enrollment has much more than doubled in the 
ts, the appropriations for maintenance have only increased by 89 percent. 
fe years of the greatest increase in enrollment were 1919 and 1920 when stu- 
tleased from war service brought the percentage up to 165 and 170 respectively 
jarison with 128 in 1918 and 100 in 1917. A little later (1921-22) the effect of 
ax of returned students is also reflected in the appropriations, the percentages 
freasing from 111 in 1919-20 to 169 in 1921-22. This percentage of 169 is not 
rent from the index of 165 of enrollment, but it comes practically one biennium 
nh 1921 and 1922, enrollment was 190 and 194 respectively; in 1923-24, one bi- 
later, appropriations were at 178, while in 1925-26 they had increased to 189 
of the appropriations for 1917-18. 
tese tables do not, of course, include any appropriations for buildings.
