| Abstract | From its conception in 1945 Roosevelt University in Chicago has been innovative in its dealings with students, faculty and curriculum. Now, at a time when the enormous expansion of the state supported junior and senior colleges and fluctuations in the federal support of higher education has periled the existence of many private colleges and universities, Roosevelt has shown that there is a need for private higher education that respects students as individuals, is responsive to their needs, is conveniently located, and which encourages part-time and older students. Almost alone among the private urban universities in this country, Roosevelt has increased its enrollment and balanced its budget. By the time the University celebrates its 30th anniversary in 1975, it is planned that enrollment will be approximately 8,000 students, that an external degree program will be firmly established, that much of the remainder of the Auditorium Building (purchased in 1947) will be renovated and air-conditioned, and that progress on an urban learning center will be well underway.
