STATISTICS FOR THIS YEAR
November 1920

Enrollment figures for the present year are as follows:

Seniors 304 Juniors 305 Sophomores 582 Freshmen 624

Graduate Students 3 Medical School 17 Thayer School 9 Tuck School 145

Freshman class statistics reveal the fact that of 624 men entering, 361 or 58 per cent come from outside New England. Massachusetts still retains its place at the head of the list, but only two New England states are included in the group of five states sending the biggest delegations, New York, New Jersey and Illionis having gained places among the leaders. In all, 28 states, plus the District of Columbia and two provinces of Canada are represented. The list is given below.

Massachusetts 152 New York 130 New Jersey 49 New Hampshire 45 Illinois 44 Ohio 35 Connecticut 31 Pennsylvania 20 Minnesota 20 Vermont 18 Michigan 12 Rhode Island 9 Maine 8 Missouri 8 Colorado 7 District of Columbia 4 Wisconsin 4 Indiana 3 lowa 3 Montana 3 Washington 3 California 3 Nebraska 2 Texas 2 New Mexico 1 Idaho 1 South Carolina 1 Kentucky 1 Tennessee 1 Canada 2 624

Twenty-six of these are sons of Dartmouth men, ten of Harvard alumni, and six are "legacies" of Yale. Space does not permit printing the interesting list of colleges attended by fathers of present Dartmouth freshmen, but out of the 624 in the entering class 140 are sons of college men, and the mothers of 42 were college women.

The following are the names of Dartmouth men with sons in 1924:
