Enrollment and cost data are incomplete for higher institutions, both Negro and white. In particular it was not possible to secure figures for 1929-30 and 1944-45 on the number of students enrolled by curriculum or comparative data on Graduates from the higher institutions included in the study. The data used in this study were collected from: (1) bulletins published by the Arkansas State Department of Education and the United States Office of Education; (2) books and periodicals; (3) college and university catalogues; and (4) correspondence.
