Oty? (ftarnlttttan Volume XXXXVI University of North Carolina at Greensboro, N. C — Friday, October 14, 1966 Number 6 Elliott Lectures Ponder Red China Hinton Kicksoff 3-Day Discussion Dr. Singletary Advises Student UNC-G Expands Under Singletary s Guidance Dr. Otis Singletary, Chancel-lor of UNC - G, has not only surveyed and supervised but al-so instigated many of the rapid changes which have occurred over the past four years. Be-fore his acceptance of UNC-G's chancellorship in 1961, a few changes concerning both facul-ty and students were occurring or being discussed. Within the University's last five years there has been over a 40 per cent increase and expansion of departments, faculty, and stu-dents. Since 1960 the student body has increased well over the 40 per cent, and is still expanding each semester. The entire cam-pus has grown twice its size as much as within the past seventy years of its existence. As t h e number of students being ac-cepted has increased, the ad-mission standards have been steadily raised, especially since 1960. Courses have been expoun-ded upon to create a greater interest to capable and eli-gible students who wish to enter or transfer from other areas of the state, country, and foreign domains. Along with this, the amount of scholar funds effect-ing these students has also in-creased. There are more loans and scholarships available now to all levels of students than ever before. As the student body has grown there is a natural demand for a larger and better faculty. The faculty itself has increased from 40-50 per cent. Just as the stan-dards of the students' admis-sion were raised, the standards to be a qualified faculty mem-ber were more discreet. Present-ly the faculty has a higher per-centage of its staff with doctor degrees than in years past. As the student body has grown there is a natural demand for a larger and better faculty.
