According to President of the Union Randy Fox, cable television will be in operation at the Rensselaer Union "definitely in time for hockey and basketball season" and possibly by next month.

The proposed contract between cable television provider Troy Newchannels and the Institute also permits Newchannels to run cables into campus dormitories—with the stipulation that it be done in a neat and efficient manner.

Because that would involve wiring the entire dormitory building at once, Newchannels indicated that 50 percent of the rooms in each dorm would have to want cable television in order to make the wiring economically feasible, according to Chuck Phelan, director of the Rensselaer Union.
