LC Fells Enrollment Down from '83
Lee College officials project fall enrollment down about 10.5 percent from 1983, with 196 more students expected to enroll this semester to reach roughly 3,589. Dean Ed Moak notes area colleges see hold steady, not sharp drops, while job availability prompts students to delay or forego college. Early registration returns after a one-time trial for Summer 1, and orientation tests in Psychology 100 show seminar attendance built on common student questions.
