 the College year or the calendar year. The publications of totals for 

 the calendar year is a misleading method of presenting statistics. 

 If a student, for example, attends the College but one College year 

 he should in all fairness be counted in only one year, but by taking 

 totals for a calendar year, this one's name would appear in the fall 

 of one year and the winter and spring of another, and so be counted 

 twice. The data, therefore, for calendar years give a misleading 

 idea in respect to the actual total enrollment. The enrollment by 

 terms is a better measure.
