Task Force Report

(continued from page 1) The report foresees a Twin Cities distribution of students in 1980 as 32%·36%-32%; or, in numbers, approxi· mately 18,200 lower division; 20,500 upper division; and 18,300 graduate stu· dents. To achieve this distribution, major development of the St. Paul campus would have to take place because the entire burden of lower-division growth would occur there. In fact, by 1980 first· and second-year students on the Min· neapolis campus probably will be 2,300 fewer than at present. Along with St. Paul campus expan· sian at the lower level, the report suggests increased capability for handling upper· division students on both the Minneapolis and St. Paul campuses: an additional Members of the Facultv Women's Club toured the St. Paul campus Feb. 17.
