Ptaafinn AT T WAS NEVER LIKE THIS. Private colleges around the country are experiencing enrollment decreases. Not only is the post-baby boom genera- tion smaller than their older brothers and sisters, but large tuition increases and cut-backs in federal aid are leaving many dorm rooms empty. However, for the last three years, Lee has had an increase in enrollment. Telemarketing is one of the ways the college will continue to fight against decreasing enrollment in private higher educa- tion. Teleteam ' 87 is a vital part of the recruitment strategy. A select group of thirty phone workers was trained by the top telemarketing seminar leader for the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE). Tele- team ' s first project was contacting over 1500 high school seniors and selling them on Lee. Talking to a current Lee student allows a high school senior to hear the personal side of attending Lee. Questions that can ' t be answered by brochures, promos and letters receive immediate response during a Teleteam call. Other telemarketing projects include surveys, special functions, capital fund drives, and admissions application follow-up. Teleteam ' 87 is now an integral part of college operation at Lee because it adds the human ele- ment in assisting those who are inter- ested in the school.

Tnm GIMMIE THAT OLD TIME RELIGION Now let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer. Amen. These words become so familiar to Lee College students that they can say them in their sleep. Every Tuesday and Thursday morning and Sunday evening, as chapel services close, the words of the college benedic- tion are faithfully recited by the student body. However, the songs sung and the messages deliv- ered before this well-known scrip- ture are as unique and varied as the students themselves. According to Acting Campus Pastor Bill George, education involves an aspect of develop- ment that Lee College consid- ers its mission: spiritual pre- paration. Through meaningful chapel services, Lee hopes to design experiences which lead to spiritual development. This need is the basic reason for chapel services. Pastor George says the admin- istration tries to keep chapel services as stirring and captivat- ing as possible, but once in a while we strike out. One way of keeping the services interest- ing is by welcoming a diverse group of speakers and musi- cians. Another way is getting the students involved. Over 50 percent of the services are spon- sored by students. — Beth Barker ' • ■ 76 CLASSES l y
