[Alumni-chat] not admitting new students

[Gerry Bello]

the number we need is 300.

thats 7.5 per chapter.

also define transfer?  what if they went somewhere else and are currently dropped out?

what if they are like 24 and never went?



"We are going to inherit the earth . There is not the slightest doubt about that. The bourgeoisie may blast and burn its own world before it leaves the stage of history but we are not afraid of ruins. We who ploughed the prairies and built the cities can build again, only better next time. We carry a new world, here in our hearts. That world is growing this minute."
