Let us try to get the "night-school" problem into focus. A breakdown by faculties of the 1958 students' roll is printed below:
Part-Time | Full-Time | |
---|---|---|
Law Faculty | 205 | 115 |
Commerce Faculty | 560 | 37 |
Arts Faculty | 742 | 362 |
Science Faculty | 192 | 378 |
Others | 51 | 37 |
Totals | 1,750 | 929 |
As long as we have a Law School and a Commerce Faculty at Victoria we will have a "night school." This is obvious. What is surprising is that the number of part-timers in the Arts Faculty is as great as that in the first two combined. Here, you would say, is where the pruning could be done.
