1103? Eleven hundred. . .and three? I'm just curious how that particular figure was reached. Why in the world wouldn't you just make the cut-off 1,100? I realize that any cutoff is fairly arbitrary. Somebody could say, why not make it 1,097? It just seems that a round number is more convenient unless there's some specific reason to use a "non-round" number. Is there any known rationale for using 1,103 as the cut-off point? Just curious.

Chuck,
In Michigan, they take the total participating schools and divide by four for classes A, B, C, D. They may tweak one or two schools if the number isn't divisible by 4.

Not much science there. The enrollments for each class vary each year.
