Extract

In the Spring of 1955, questionnaires were sent to one or more of the foreign language chairmen in each institution in the PMLA listing of department chairmen. Of 1,003 questionnaires sent to 953 institutions, 726 were filled in and returned by 678 institutions. The 277 chairmen in the other 275 institutions ignored or mislaid the original questionnaire and a duplicate reminder mailed in May. In assessing the summary of the returns, one should bear in mind the probability that many of these 275 chairmen laid aside the questionnaire because they had little to report. The returns may therefore present a somewhat rosy picture of foreign language teaching in American and Canadian colleges and universities in 1954–55.
