with the Teatro dell’Opera in Rome,
Radio-Television Italy, the Orches

As was the caselast year and the
/ear before, one of the interesting ’
facts is that more than half the
day-time students and almost half
of the total enrollment is listed as
residing on the campus. In many
past years the commuter students
were in the majority, but the recent
trend has been for an increase in
campus residents.
The actual figures on campus and
commuting students shows that
there are now 630 students now re
siding on the campus, among them
401 men and 229 woman, compared
with 581 day-time commuters and
133 night students, almost all of
whom commute to the campus.
