No, community college in Southern California, almost free at the time.

Same here, ADVEN on a DEC 10 running TOPS-10, around 1979. One college instructor told
us to play it and said, "Let them play games, and that will get them
interested."

Ah, yes, I remember now, we invoked it using ADVEN on the PDP-10, which used
36-bit words and 7-bit ASCII (hence 5 chars per word). I, too, mapped out the
whole thing back in the late '70s, and I too have forgotten most of it since
then.
