Built between 1970 and 1975 ?
The source says "late 1970s."

Homemade ?
Certainly not a 'professional' build, but not home-built by an individual either.

Student project ?

No, but closer. I think this may have been something that was either unique to the US, or at least rare/non-existent in Europe (and currently rare/non-existent in the US).

No, nothing that interesting or specific.

I looked it up and it seems to still be common in Australia and parts of Europe, although under a different term than what was commonly used here in the US.

No, even more mundane than that. This was a source of low-level, generalized training.
