Then come the Universities of California, Kansas. Minnesota, Yale, Wisconsin and Ohio State. Of the nine colleges named four are in the East and five in the West.

Among the states, New York and Ohio stand after Massachusetts, in a tie of 46, while a far western state, California, is next with 38. Of the 16 states having the largest representation, only four are New England state, eight are in the middle west, two in the tar west, and two in the south.

From the 13 foreign countries represented in the school there are 36 students. China with nine has the largest number, Canada is second with seven, and Japan third with five.
