Ray White, interim vice chancellor at Troy University Montgomery, said attendance sagged at the end of the school year as fewer class groups visited.
"About two or three weeks ago, we saw a drop in yellow school buses," White said
Other tour groups have canceled summer reservations.
"It is more than we have experienced in the past," he said. "They say they are canceling because of gas prices."
If pump prices hover near the $3 mark into the fall, that could keep school tour groups away.
White said Troy is looking for businesses to sponsor school trips to the Rosa Parks Museum and Montgomery Planetarium, which the university operates under contract with the city.
If attendance continues to slide over the summer, the school may have to ask the city for more money. "Our intent is to continue operations," he said. -

"We've got the original -- we purchased it for $7,500 in 2001 from a retired Montgomery police officer," said Ray White, interim vice chancellor of the Montgomery campus.
White contacted the Free Press after learning about an Aug. 28 article that said Reed, believing he owned the original document, had loaned a copy to Disney World for its National Treasures exhibit opening Sept. 28 at Epcot Center in Florida.
White said he bought the original card in May 2001 from retired Deputy Chief William Hudson, who said he retrieved it from a stack of cards that were about to be shredded after clerks had transferred them to microfiche in 1983.
White said he had been looking for the original card since the late 1990s when he found a copy in a box in the basement of the Montgomery Police Department while searching for memorabilia for the Rosa Parks Library and Museum.
...
White said he, too, was offered booking cards at the groundbreaking ceremony, but having seen a copy at the police at the police station, he believed he wasn't being offered the real thing.
