Tuck School

The 1964-65 academic year is off to a fast start. Enrollment is up slightly over last year with a total of 211 students, broken down as follows: 115 first year, 81 second year, and 15 Tuck-Thayer and special students. The largest increase is in the first year. Sixty-four students are happily married and there are a considerable number of children (uncounted at this writing) happily running, around Sachem Village and other areas of Hanover, Norwich, and Wilder. Tuck students this year are not only highly intelligent but athletically proficient. They won their first all-college league touch football game last week and the DCAC tipsters report that they are odds-on favorites for the championship. We hope this early-season prediction doesn't put a jinx on the team.
