Green said he expects the count, now at 1,148 students, to increase by between 150 to 200 students when registration is complete by the end of September. Green says the head count is great for morale, because its good to see so many people on campus. The statistics that mean more, though, in terms of budget operation, reflect total enrolled e semester credit hours and student equiwhich are calculated from valency (FTE) figures credit hour totals. When calculated by college methods, which count students taking more than 12 credit hours only once, Westminsters FTE total increased from 738 on Sept. 16, 1982, to 831 on Sept. 16, 1983 a 12 increase over this time last year. In 1982, the college enrolled 86 new freshmen students. On Sept. 16, this year, the college had enrolled 133 new freshmen. These figures reflect an increase of 54. The major factor contributing to increased enrollment, according to Green, is a change in the colleges marketing approach. In the past, Westminster has apologized for being small and not having money, said Green.
