The largest u ity in the East 1 the great universities of the Mic e West are offering instruction by mail, competing with the commercial correspondence schools, which have long held the lure of promotion to bet- ter jobs to those who subscribe to thelr courses. The commercial corre- spondence schools stress the immedi- ate financial advantages of taking their courses; the universities, which are conducted less with an eye to fits, emphasize the broad cultural pervised study. vivid hopes which correspondence &chools stir p in the m of prospects jusmfied by the accomplishments of their graduates Many Do Not Finish. The answer to this question de- pends on a set of standards as to which there is no agreement. It is a fact, however, that the mor- tality rate of enrolling students in some commereial correspondence schools is exceedingly heavy. One expert observer Is authority for the statement that only a small fraction finish the courses In the new competition, the uni- versities are promising iess, and there- fore are appealing to more discrim- inating Individuals. One large uni- versity reports that 71 per cent of those who enroll for its instruction by mail complete the courses. Al though the fees are as high as those charged by the comm 1 corre- spondence schools, they operate mert ly to cover costs.
