CALIPORNIA ..OLYT.CHNIC STAT. UNIVERSITY SAN LUIS OBIS .. O, CALIFORNIA October 3, 1972 Volume 24, Number 9 GROWTH IN EMPHASIS PROGRAMS ~OTED Enrollment in occupationally-oriented majors is continuing to be strong at Cal Poly for the Fall Quarter, but majors related to teacher education show a decline, the university announced last week. Cal Poly's emphasis fields in architecture, agriculture, engineer­ ing, and related programs in business, home economics, and the sciences all maintained their enrollments of last year or reflected increases, according to L. H. Dunigan (Di­ rector of Institutional Studies). Dunigan said a preliminary figure for Fall Quarter registration at Cal Poly does not include students who were expected to enroll during late registration continuing through ~onday (Oct. 2). Total enrollment had reached 12,13~ by close of the regular registra­ tion period, accordin~ to Dunigan. That figure is only 3 students lower than the 12,137 students who had registered at a comparable time last fall. An enrollment of 12,300 students had been projected for the Fall Quarter. Enrollment projections are developed many months in a~vance and are normally expected to include a two or three precent plus­ or-minus variance. Dunigan said that the n1ost significant decreases in Cal Poly's Fall Quarter enrollment are in graduate education programs and in those fields responsible for developing under­ graduate students who would be going into teaching. He specifically listed English, h:Lstory, spee.ch, physical education for men and women, child development, mathematics, and social sciences. Walter Schroeder (head of the Education Department) credited recent publicity given to the crowded employment picture in public education for the drop in enrollments in both graduate education and other teacher-preparation programs. In addition to areas \vhere degree programs are new, curricula showing the largest in­ creases in Fall Quarter registration include architectural engineering, crop science, fruit science, city and regional planning, economics, ornamental horticulture, politi­ cal gcience and soil science.

Questions may be submitted to the Information Services Office, Adm-210.} Q. Is there a law governing the sale of term and other research papers in California? A. The sale or advertising for sale of term papers and other research papers for pre­ sentation for credit in higher education institutions is covered by AB 230 (Keysor}, which was af>proved by both houses of the Legislature and signed by Governor Ronald Reagan recently. The bill, which had the endorsement of the Trustees of The Cali­ fornia State University and Colleges, makes it illegal to prepare, sell, or distri­ bute any term paper or other written material for a fee by one person on behalf of another person who has been assigned the written preparation of such material at any publ lc or private institution of learning in California. Q. When does AB 230 (Keysor) take effect? A. Sometime early ne-xt year, most likely late February or early Marc-h. Like other new laws that do not contain an emergency clause, AB230, official.ly becomes law on the 61st day after close of the legislative session during which it was approved by the Legislature and signed by the governor.
