Michigan Has Had 30,000 Students

MICHIGAN HAS HAD 30,000 STUDENTS SINCE THE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNIVERSITY. And Yet the University Has Not Cost the State More Than One Battleship Would Cost.

The total cost of the University of Michigan to the state has been less than the cost of one first class battleship to the nation and yet 17,184 persons have graduated from the University, besides 12,643 who have obtained a partial college education here, but have not graduated, thus bringing the total who have studied here up to about 30,000. Which is better for the nation, 30,000 educated men and women or one battleship?
