HOWARD WILL GET MORE TEACHERS Appropriation Bill Carries $65,000 Increase for Ad- ditions to Faculty. Additional teachers will be provided for Howard University's staff by virtue of the $65,000 increase in the school's appropriation carried in the bill signed by President. Coolidge, March 4, it was announced last night by university offi- clals. The total appropriation of $600,000 for Howard University includes an item of $225,000 for salaries. This enlarged fund will permit the employment of ad- ditional instructors particularly in the College of Education, Liberal Arts and Applied Sciences. It had been contended for a long time that Howard University teachers were overworked by carrying excessively large classes and by lengthy teaching days. The United States Bureau of Education, following & recent survey, recommended the employment of ad- ditional teachers and fellows, laboratory assistants and assistants in other de- partments to relieve the heavy teaching loads that had been borne by the uni- versity's instructors. 1t was recommended also that many of the abnormally large classes be di- vided into sections. With more teachers, several courses now closed because of maximum enrollment will be open dur- ing each quarter, and other courses will be provided for. The appropriation bill includes an item of $240,000 for the chemistry building, $150,000 having been pre- viously appropriated for the same pur- pose, making & total for the construc- tion of the building $390,000. An item of $40,000 was provided for the con- struction of a mew girls’ dormitory for which $150,000 previously had been ap- propriated.
