Disclose Notes: Likely an attempt to cash in on the success of 1970s college comedies such as Animal House. Jock and Boomer read issues of Archie and The Black Hood on the first page. Contains a surprisingly risque (by Archie standards) joke when Hondo mentions he's "heard of getting high on campus, but this is ridiculous" in reaction to the anti-gravity formula.

Story ends with note asking readers to write Archie Comics if they want to see more of the Campus Clowns. The Campus Clowns never appeared after this story.
