Almost 300 students from the four small Cambridge graduate schools are living in the new and old halls of the Graduate Center. The School of Education, has 32 men living the University dormitories, while the Schools of Design, Divinity, and Public Administrations have 27, 20, and 14 occupants respectively.

The figures are incomplete still as about 20 spaces are shifting occupants.

Only four non-Law School men will be living with Law School friends in the letter's dormitories. The administration offered last year to switch any men who wanted to make this change.

Each school was given in quota of places it could have in the dormitories based on the number of full-time male, single students that school had. The four small schools were allowed 96 places.

Out of the approximately 490 spaces, 394 were allotted to the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. Design - School residents number 17 less than their quota of 44, said Education men are 14 above their allotment of 18. Both the Schools of Public Administration and Divinity just matched their quotas.

The Divinity School figures includes only the students living in Divinity Hall, as the dormitory space in Andover Hall is not counted as part of the Graduate Center.

The present G.S.A.S. total in University dormitories in 378, 16 below their allotment.

Every student in one of the four small schools who applied on time was given a room, Assistant Dean William G. McLoughlin, Jr. of G.S.A.S. reported yesterday. McLoughlin, who handled non-Law School housing in the Graduate Center, said that his office had received over 580 room applications when the fall semester began.

Besides William James and Richards Halls, which provides almost 200 new rooms, McLoughlin's office had additional space to assign in Perkins Hall, two floors of which were used by Law students last year.
