Washburn Plans Modest Growth To 7000 Students
Washburn University president Jerry Farley told a legislative committee that the school does not aim to compete with Kansas' large research universities. He outlined a 21st century vision to remain a smaller campus with a quality environment, planning to grow from about 6,100 to around 7,000 students while preserving small classes and a low student-faculty ratio. Farley cited Topeka's limited growth as a reason to stay within capacity.
