Last year, these 51 schools enrolled about a fourth of all students in four-year and graduate institutions in Califor- nia - about 120,000 students altogether. What one man believes is good for private universities may not be the opinion of others involved in independent higher education. Colleges are like people.

PROBLEM UNDER STUDY Private o leges Need Aid Recenth David Pa kard
tat ment recently, "has never been more affluent, but the private educa- tional, cultural and welfare institu- tions that give it so much of its strength and quality are m dire straits. Many are confronted by large deficits and often by threats to their very existence." Mr Packard, who may appear negative to some, does not seem to have goals different from those of Mr. Shultz or Mr. Mills, He clearly recognizes the contributions of pri- vate colleges to the vitality and diversity of the higher education sys- tem. He is not asking that the busi- ness community stop giving to these institutions. Instead, Mr. Packard is advocating more selective philan- thropy ; business giving to those pri- vate universities whose policy mak- ing boards recognize the practical as well as theoretical needs of the na- tion. The numbers of these colleges, it seems to us, far exceed the numbers of those that have caused Mr. Packard concern. As a footnote, we might add, that when industries do consider corpor- ate support of education, they might also ponder gifts of executive time and talent on boards of trustees. Those abstractionists who have appeared in the ruling councils of higher education are there because of the inattention or apathy of the audience to whom Mr. Packard ad- dressed his remarks.
guished Callfornian who has served both private industry and govern- ment startled the higher d cation community when he suggested lo his peers that they should be more cau- tious about which private institutions are the beneficiaries or business philanthrophy. Mr. Packard's point is that some, but by no means all, private universi• ties have shifted away from corpo- rate and business representation on boards of trustees. The mix of facul- ty, students, alumni and a variety of ethnic groups that has replaced pro- fessional people is not as sensitive to the need for colleges to supply the professional people that business and industry needs, Mr. Packard be- lieves. I\ r Packard clearly is not a voice in the wilderness. A number of pri- vate and government studies note that hile total corporate and private giving all American institutions- educational, cultural, scientific and charitable-is rising slowly the pre- centage in relation to earnings is declining. Mr. Packard's case is further bol- stered by the recent statement by Secretary of the Treasury George P. Shultz and Rep. Wilbur Mills, chair- man of the House Ways and Means Committee. "Our society," they said in a joint

Dr. Robert J. Wert, presi- dent of the Association of Independent California Col- leges and Universities, said the 6 per cent enroliment boost over last year is the biggest m recr>nt years. The number of full-lime gradu- ate students is up 15.5 per cent and part-lime under- graduate and graduate fig- ures are up 23.7per cent and 17.2 per cent respectively. Wert told the Joint Com- mittee on the :\taster Plan for Higher Education that he thinks the drop of 1.1 per cent in full-time undergradu- ate enrollment is at least partially the result of the growmg differences in cost belwet>n attending a private college and a state-support- ed one. Like lhP private colieges, many state colleges and un- iversities experienced unex- pected Jumps in enrollment this year.
