Why Did 1,800 Stay Away OU Faces Enrollment Drop
Ohio University faces the largest eighteen year enrollment decline as 1,800 students did not return this fall. President Claude Sowle announced Dr. Robert L. Savage will lead a mainly telephone survey of missing students to determine reasons. Possible causes include draft changes, rising costs, and a stricter parietal rule policy. The university weighs policy changes and budget impacts while planning an enhanced recruitment drive to attract students from Ohio and other states.
