Ribicoff, who is against increasing the size of the Storrs campus into what he calls a "vast educational how big he. thinks the main campus should be, Jorgensen said it should not be any bigger than necessary to handle about 5,000 or more students. At present about 6,000 students reside on the campus. Dr. Jorgensen said he does not believe a system of state operated junior colleges with two year courses is advisable for Connecticut because of its small size.

He said he thinks proper development of the state colleges and the university branches would fill the bill. Gov. Ribicoff also discussed the possibility of increasing late afternoon and night-time courses at the branches in order to provide mere education for desirous students. Dr. Jorgensen agreed that plan also makes sense.

He said that at present, enrollments at the branches are about half night time and half day-time students.
