There were 47. Although information is not available on many of them, the information provided suffices ·to make it clear that there is no geo- graphic concentration of "no shows." There are 8 of the 47 who plan to attend next semester that we know about, and possibly others have only deferred their educational program at Alpena Community College. There were also 4 students from India who we believe had difficulty with ex- change probrems due to policies of the Indian government. Fifteen are women. As nearly as can be determined except for the facts mentioned, the reasons for students who were admitted not enrolling are as varied as the number of individuals. It can be pointed out that had somewhat better than half of the "no shows" registered enrollment would be at the projected enrollment of 450 equated full-time students. When "no shows" were checked early in September, there were only 22. It should be pointed out that the enrollment increase over 1962 is 7.46 per cent on the basis of head count and 3.83 per cenf on the basis of equated full-time membership.

The value of these segments of compressed garbage is debatable. What then is the use of televis- ion to a college student? By leafing through the lo- cal TV program I found that at 6:30 a.m., Monday through Friday one can tune in on a program called "Sunrise Semester" for a lecture on "The Scope of Utilitarianism." Picture yourself getting up at this time and then coming to school for a whole day of lectures. It has been said that the bulk of television is aimed at the vegetables with twelve-year-old minds. A review of any night's schedule will confirm this. What are we to do if our mentality is above that of a vegetable? Wait for an occasional notable spec- ial? Get up at 6:30 a.m. and risk being bored? Ignore television completely? I think_ I have found a solutio , I' .at least h-::::av-~~e---..-~ discovered everyone else's solution. Lower youn~elf to the mental level of a twelve--year-old vegetable for your evening's enter- tainment! Surrender your- self to the realm of non- thinking, effortless beings. Let yourself be enveloped by the ameboid pseudopods of television. I have to go now, it's almost time for "Huckle- berry Hound!"
