Pat: Karl Kahler posted that exact info once. I haven't read his book so I don't know if the info's in there, but you might either email Karl or just start digging around threads.
Way Kork 6 had 353, I believe after all the late invitees showed up, some time by the end of our first week. We finished with 281 or 282 which included 1 4th kork straggler who finished with us and 3 5th kork stragglers. Evan, Hope?? any different memory on final numbers??....
Memory? Of what? And what, pray tell, is memory? I seem to have forgotten. Alfakat, if YOU don't remember, NOBODY does! I'd bank on that one, probergeness.
Johnny, I thought it was 444. Dang, I used to have all the statistics and paperwork til I mailed it off to someone who asked for it. ;)--> I never dreamed I'd need copies of the stuff.
I'll check with sis-in-law though, she might still have the housing lists, graduation program, etc.
Did you keep your "corps files"? If you did, it's probably in there.
Ya know Ex10, I believe you are right. For us to have only dropped 45 people doesn't sound right. I think it was 444, which means that 145 dropped be fore graduation...
Just like alfa said, 444 is an easy number to remember, and I'm pretty sure that's what we started with. And I feel pretty confident about the grad number, too.
i did a fast count of first year list and got 316 ??? don't know how many we lost or picked up by graduation..... but it's gotta' be in that ballpark somewhere, you think ?
If I remember right the 25th apprentice year was '92-'93? So inresidence was '93-'94. So the '94-'95 year was interum (or wow year making corpse be team leaders). I remember because my wow sister was being trained to be a team leader. But '94-'95 was the height of the homo-purge. I was sitting in the big top, and I had learned the great-forheads body language so well that when he came out on stage, I knew something was up, I looked at my Mom who was sitting next to me and said. "something is up with craig, (i paused for a moment) and said they aren't sending any wow's out this year." And sure enough "the athlete" cancelled the WOW program sighting too many homo's were smoked out, blah blah blah. So '94-'95 was 27th corpse apprentice year, I'm not surprised the numbers are so low.

I am pretty sure that the Tenth Corps started out with 344, and am almost positive that we graduated with 299.

Karl's book is wrong about the 6kktphth kork, 275 is a very easy number to remember and that was NOT the number.

Are they still getting people to sign up for the WC program??
"94-'95 is 10 years ago and most of what is talked about here are the past WC groups.

Rejoice, the last class had a whopping 5 graduates. I wonder how long they will last.
